Hi Bud,

If I remember correctly there's nothing to adjust on the master cylinder.
If the clutch doesn't work as it should you can

1. change the brake fluid and bleed the system
2. if 1. doesn't help you'll need to change the cylinder.

It's a pretty common problem.  It's the first thing I had to fix on my
Syncro.  It's an easy job, just a bit messy with all the brake fluid running
all over the place...

Peter

On page 30.2 of Bentley, there's an illustration of the clutch pedal
operation. I have found it to be almost inaccessible. The adjustment of
the plunger as it activates the clutch master is what I need. Does
anyone have any experience and/or suggestions (other than getting
smaller hands) ?  All input welcome - - TIA
