Hello all,
What I have found is that the hole in the brake petal also wears oblong.
What I did was to remove the brake petal (oh my aching back), weld the hole
closed and re drill it. Drilling it oversized for a bushing or bearing would
work also. I just figured that the original pin and hole had lasted thirty
years so the benefit of getting fancy was minimal.

Some time back there was a thread about clutch problems that were caused by
wear in the connection between the clutch pedal and the U fitting that
connects the master cylinder piston to the clutch pedal. I took a look
before I drug out the engine hoist and unbolted the tranny to lift the
engine out, which I think you can do with an L16 engine/tranny combo. It
turns out that the free play I had in the pedal was all movement around the
pin connecting the master cylinder to the clutch pedal. Closer inspection
found that it was holes in the MC adapter that were very worn.
