u need to reset the pedal quadrant rachet mechanism....located under the dash is part of the clutch pedal assemblyis in the form of a quarter circle with teeth on the outer edge....these locate in a smaller ,toothed segment with 3 teeth...like a rachet arrangement.....it is spring loaded and u need to release it to let the clutch engage...then when u press pedal it will emit a racheting sound so pump pedal till it feels ok and clicking stops...this automatically sets the clutch correctly
