[Healeys] High clutch

[Hank Leach]

Don-I would look into this (photos) as a possible cause of your sloppy
clutch. It is possible that both the "eyes" of the clutch master and
slave cylinder rods are worn to egg shaped and the clevis flattened.
The rod is the sacrificial item so more than likely that is the
culprit after 60K miles of push and shove. Yes, unlike the brake
master, there is no rod adjustment. Hank

Subject: [Healeys] High clutch

 My 65 BJ8 clutch catches after I depress the pedal about 1 to 2
inches from the rest position . I’ve replaced the clutch master
cylinder and the slave cylinder. And I’ve bled the system .
There’s. No slipping of the clutch . Car has 60,000 on it with I’m
sure the original clutch. Is there any way to make it catch more mid
way when I depress the pedal? I know there are no threaded rods on
either the pedal box or at the transmission end . Maybe a different
length rod coming out of the slave cylinder?
 Thanks , Don
