Default Re: V8 Clutch Question

I have a friend who would take his antique Rolls Royce to a shop to have work done. They always adjusted the clutch with zero free movement at the top. After having to replace the clutch 3 times I finally was able to connect with the owner of the shop and inform him that free movement at the top was absolutely necessary. After that, no more clutch problems. I think they were used to new RR's that had hydraulic clutches.
