I've pulled the old TR6 out of hibernation tuned it and adjusted the
valve for the upcoming season. The car is running great.
I'm now attempting to install the clutch return spring on the 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 clutch pedal pulls toward the driver and is much
higher than should be and also pulls the clutch actuating rod out of the clutch
master cylinder. It almost seems as if there is some kind of stop missing. What
is supposed to keep the clutch pedal from hyperextending toward the driver 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 I'd like to install it if it will
contribute to having a bit more footwell room.
Thanks.
Best,
Bob
'72 TR6.
