I just replaced the clutch MC on my 86.5 HB pickup.When I installed the new one I used the old one to determine the rod length (matched it to the old one).When I installed the new one it was short so I had to lengthen the rod to be able to put the pin in it on the clutch pedal. Originally,the clutch always started to engage near the floor,now it is almost at the top of the pedal before it grabs.Both books (Chilkton & Haynes) say to adjust the clutch pedal but not which way?I have a feeling I should shorten the length but am not sure?If you can explain why I need to shorten or lengthen it would be a big help.
