There is no adjustment for the clutch; hydraulic systems are self
adjusting and every hydraulic system has a different feel. There are some
threads and adjustment of the push rod which may give you slightly more
throw. Generally if rebuilding the Master and slave cylinders then
bleeding the system doesn't work then you need to examine the master and
slave cylinders closer for wear and weak parts. You could need a new
master or slave cylinder. I also recommend that you safety wire the push
rod to the clutch fork in case the clip fails.

Subject: Clutch loosy goosy
hey guys,
i have been having a little difficulty with the clutch. It seems to have
about 1/2 inch of play when the car is cold. And then after it warms up
there is
about 3/4-1inch of play with the pedal. And then sometimes, it is hard to
get into some gears after it is warmed up. Is there some way to adjust the
clutch.
Also i know we have the clutch bleed completly of air. With DOT 5. It has
new MC and new SLAVE. when the car is either cold or hot, if i go under the
car
and feel the rod that goes into the slave, i can feel that is it loose.
We have tried to bleed the clutch with the car hot. And it did no
differance. Very very little. But it was still loose.
Are all clutches like this? or is there some way of adjusting anything.
thanks for all the help.
