Ur MB hydraulic clutch adjustment

I assume you mean master?…….in all the many hundreds of master cylinders I changed ‘back then’ I discarded the threaded pin that came with the cylinder and left the original attached to the pedal. It could be that someone went to the lengths to swap the yolk and locknut over and got the length wrong- hence the problem. Trouble is if there is no free play then it is equivalent to driving with your foot permanently resting on the clutch pedal, result = premature worn out clutch.
