It's pretty easy, I'll quote the Bentley here for ya: "you should be able to depress the clutch cable about 15mm(5/8 in) before encountering resistance. To adjust cable, locate adjusting nut which is on top of the cable conduit. To increase clutch pedal freeplay, loosen the locknut. Then turn the adjuster until you can pull the cable conduit upward and out of the bracket about 6mm(1/4 in)[bracket they are speaking of is the one on the transmission]. Then check the freeplay at pedal. If it is about 15-25mm(5/8 - 1in), tighten the cable adjustor locknut. If necessary, make additional adjustments in order to obtain the correct freeplay before you tighten the locknut" It's pretty straightforward. HTH, -Rob

So is this procedure easy? How do I do it? Thx!
