    Cluth adjustment question

    Hello, I am wondering what is the best or easiest way to adjust the clutch in my 1972 left hand drive series 3. I have too much free travel in the clutch pedal and need to adjust the lock nuts on the master cylinder rod. Looks like you have to remove the cover on the housing, but how is the best way to gain access to the cover?

    Thanks,

    If it is a LHD, the only option is to remove the wing. I guess you could chop a hole in the fender, but let's not go there!
