- In my 76 Midget the clutch pedal is only effective the last 15-20% of travel. When pulling away from a stop, I get engagement almost as soon as the pedal moves from the floor. I don't think the clutc

- The 1500 Midget Clutch system can be a bear to bleed completely. Highly recomend some kind of forced system, as pumping doesn't work as effectively as on most other cars. Your best bet is an air pre

- How about the condition of the clevis pin and pushrod between the pedal and the MC? If these are ovalized they will use up a lot of your clutch travel. Also, I don't remember which midgets, but some
