[TR] TR3 clutch slave adjustment questions

[fogbro1 at comcast.net]

Dave,



At rest, the rod and piston should be bottomed in the slave cylinder (all the
way back). The returnB spring will see to it.



And by the way, some cars will have to have the slave cylinder on the back
(rear) of the mounting bracket due to the length of the rod regardless of the
photo in the shop manual.

When I replaced the slave I didn't get around to fully adjusting it, kinda
followed the set up of the old one. In order to get the clutch pedal to
disengage higher, I'll need to turn the lock nut on the rod counter clockwise
to increase how far the rod goes back into the cylinder, correct, or am I
wrong on that? My pedal disengages fairly close to the floor right now, and
I'd like to try and raise it a bit...Haynes has once again got me confused.
Thanks
