I didn't feel like doing much this weekend but the clutch pedal didn't feel right still so I thought I'd take a look at it.
The throw on the pedal seemed too long and it seemed really high.

It looks like someone did a bit of a bodge, they bent the bracket the stop and the clutch switch usually goes on. Also there was a bolt with a bit of rubber on.

I took the pedal and bracket off to straighten and grease the pivot.

I left the bolt on as I thought the pedal would be at the same height after straightening the bracket.

The pedal back on and it feels so much better now.

I also replaced the fuel pump relay as the casing was broken on the one on the car.

That's it for today.
