[Healeys] High clutch

[Hank Leach]

OK the other point of wear is the clevis holding the clutch pedal in
the footwell. New rods were exact replacement? One other point of
"adjustment" are the shims behind the clutch master. Hank

   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

 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
