Well I finally got round to investigating the poor travel on the clutch pedal. Having previously replaced a split feed pipe from the reservoir, and bled the system, with no noticeable improvement, I decided to replace the slave and master cylinders. Slave first, again no noticeable improvement, so obviously not a defective unit. With the car up and good access, I could see I had purchased the wrong, or at least not like for like, master. Having got this far, I might as well take the master off and inspect it. Not a happy device, as it turned out the return spring had snapped, and over time coiled into its lower half; no wonder gear changes had become tiresome! Now to repair, if only temporarily. As the cylinders were the same bore, the plunger in the new unit was the right fit, but the spring was shorter, as was the body. I managed to repurpose the old spring seat, and got the old unit back together with the borrowed spring/plunger. Too dark now to continue, so clutch bleeding will resume tomorrow. In the meantime, does anyone know the part number or source for the original unit pictured below It's broken spring, so I can get one on the shelf? There were no discernable outer markings
