hi List,
        I'm attempting to install the clutch return spring on my TR6.  I 
haven't had a return spring in place since I acquired  the car over 30 years 
ago, but I had the spring and decided to install it. The issue is that without 
the spring the clutch pedal is at the proper orientation to the brake pedal but 
when I install the spring the pedal pulls forward and is much higher than I'm 
sure it should be, and also pulls the clutch actuating rod out of the clutch 
master cylinder. It almost seems as if there is some kind  a stop missing. What 
is supposed to keep the clutch pedal from hyperextending with the return spring 
in place? 
        As I said, I haven't had the spring in place since I got the car and 
can continue to live without it, but curiosity is getting the better of me...
        Best,
        Bob
        '72 TR6.
