See above pic for correct installation. The large arm must be pryed rearwards after installation, before adjustment. I can post detailed instructions later.
That adjustment bolt gap is way too big. It needs to be 1.0 mm after removing .2 mm of cable slack. The lock nut on the adjuster must be tight.

A couple people have brought up that they see a large gap between the adjustment bolt and the small arm. There is little-to-no gap between the two. It only looks that way in those pictures. Here is a picture with flash:
I simply can't figure this one out. The car was owned at one time by someone from a well known Porsche shop here in Austin, and when I bought it it was very well sorted. Everything worked perfectly and it shifted like as well as could be expected from a 915 trans 911.
Is it possible I kept the old clutch cable on too long, continued to use it in a stretched state to the point where other parts of the clutch/transmission were brought out of spec? And even though I changed out the clutch cable, pedal cluster, clevis/pin, and made all the proper adjustments, the damage has occurred further down the line that I can't see?
Why wouldn't the strength of the clutch arms be able to bring the omega spring, and subsequently the clutch pedal, back to the proper resting position?
