seven clutch pedal - Vancevr - 26-04-2021
i have a quick few questions, i have a 29' chummy and i have found that clutch pedal works more like a on/off switch than a pedal is it only supposed to move an inch? sometimes when moving it around if i move it out too quick (more like very very slow) the rear end jumps and kicks you in the back. any advice would be helpful. my other question is what number is the bulb behind the red glass on the switch board? i know it is a 6v 3w but does it have any special number for getting a new one.

Hmm, that sounds suspiciously like an Austin 7 to me....
You will get used to it - it may be that the clutch surfaces are dirty/oily/rusty, especially if the car hasn't had a lot of use recently, so it may improve.
Bulb should be a 6V, 3W MES, Lucas type LLB990, available here:
Bulb Screw Type 6v 3w Single Contact MES E10 LLB990 (holden.co.uk)
This assumes there is no series resistor in circuit with the bulb (check on your panel).
You will have local suppliers, able to supply at minimal shipment cost.
