As a result of what turned out to be a faulty "Automatic" battery charger, that boiled the battery over, that was the start of my problems.
Once I discovered the situation I went after it with a baking soda solution to try to neutralize the acid and then flushed and washed and scrubbed and did that all over again. The acid managed to get into this clutch item which I understand how it did it since Morgan positioned the switch under the leading edge of the battery, not a good place, and then put the switch so the connectors could gather as much dirt, grime, water and grease AND battery acid in the connection! Swell, rethink the position of that switch MMC.
I have not gone to the parts book yet but what is a switch doing on the clutch hydraulics? The engine will stat with the clutch depressed or not, so whats the switch for?
Getting into the nooks and crannies of the area under the battery is tricky to say the least and it would have been best to do it after draining the oil. I did not was to waste more oil so this worked.
I FOUND THAT SWITCH, IT IS THE BRAKE LIGHT SWITCH, nowhere near the master cylinder but under the battery so acid and lord knows what can get into the contacts on the leads.
