Did I not lower the clutch properly?

The DIY posted says you can only get 1.5-1.75 turns, so that's consistent with what you're experiencing. No idea what you're describing though. Messing with this adjustment sounds like recipe

Messing with this adjustment sounds like recipe for a toasted clutch.

Why would that be?

It's now changed back close to the OEM position.
You might just have needed some time to get used to it.

if adjusted to low you may not be releasing the clutch as far as it should so it may be wearing all the time while depressed
