always thought 'bight point' should be half to 2/3 from floor

Personally, I would adjust so that there is just perceptible free play when everything is at rest.
It's usually the slot in the clutch release arm that wears, Phillpot posted some time ago on this subject, and his method of repair. But sadly I can't find it due to the new search being useless.

Edit: Found it! This is what Phillpot did...
