Reply to "Clutch adjustment?"

I think I have been making some of the problems with my clutch myself without the help of others.

Not knowing a great deal about the Marque, I tackled the clutch just as I would have with a TR2, E type or any other classic car that over the years I have been fortunate to own.

A clutch is simple, or so I thought and an effort reduction kit I also knew nothing about.

in short I have never put the adjustments recommended with the Effort reduction kit, and just tried to set the clutch up like any other bloke would.

I have spent a while today reading up on the ins and outs, found that I have measured the Master cyl rod in the wrong way to start with.

At least I have the quadrant around the right way, so I shall now set it up as per the settings in the books.

Master 2.91"
slave 3.07"
and hope for a decent space between flywheel and disc.

I must thank all those far more knowledgeable than myself for their efforts to help this numbskull, but hopefully we are on the way to getting it working properly.

Best wishes and a happy xmas to you all.

and the days are getting longer again too Pete
