Help with fuel cut problem

Never had any fuel cut problem until today.All was fine yesterday and it was much colder.
I adjusted the clutch pedal today becuase it was engaging to high.
Took it for a test drive and got on it and fuel cut.So I get on it above 5000 rpm and still fuel cut.
If I hold the throttle in it does nothing until I let off.
Weather was colder the last few days with no issues.
Any Ideas anyone?

Is this just a coincedense?
Or did I possibly do something when adjusting the clutch pedal?

Problem solved.Clutch pedal wasn't closing the disengaged switched,causing the ecu to do No lift to shift mod everytime I went WOT.

So, how were you able to track the cause of the problem down?

I notice others with fuel cut were getting a CEL,I wasn't.Also with recently playing with the clutch pedal made me think that it was related.
It would only happen when i would go WOT anything less was good.After talking with Evo8dad he came up with the same idea.
I looked at the switch and noticed it was not completely pushed in.I made the adjustment and all was well.
