clutch pedal stays too high..

hi.

after I put a bulkhead patch for clutch cable.

clutch pedal stays too high like this


but it actually works on the same high as brake pedal (as I adjusted..)



there's just a huge gap so sometimes feel tired to put my foot on the pedal…..

is there anyway to make it right? any return spring on the lever?

look towards the top, there should be a plastic limit stop. i found on my cab the pedal was all bent where the stop was/should be so i had to bend it back to shape then fit the stop. before i foudn the stop i made a little metyal bracket which I bolted to the pedal box to do its job, it was a little bit bodgworthy really i made it out of a bit of the metal brackets you get in central lockign kits

unfortunatly i sold my cabby a long time ago and the diagrams in etka are for the LHD pedal box :(

if you press the pedal then release it slowly, where the top of the pedal comes near to the pedal box there should be a bit of metal where the clutch pedal stop clips onto. looking at that i think your pedal box has same problem mine did and is damaged where the stop needs to be. like i say, i just made my own out of a bit of metal before i foudn the right plastic bush on a mk1 i9n the scrap yard

its up to you! the only way i figured it out on mine was i found a mk1 cab in the local scrap yard, I stole the plastic peg and figured out what was bent on my mk1. otherwise I'd never have figured it out on my own I dont think. the way it was twisted up looked factory!
