All the manual MC pushrods I've ever seen have that goofy little rubber/plastic retainer on the end of the pushrod that retains it in the MC. There is no adjustment possible.
I'm gonna guess that you initially do the install and adjustment without the rubber retainer. Then remove the master, install the retainer and bolt up the master again. But I'm just guessin' !!
What I wanna know is what sort of feeler gauge you use to measure that clearance and where? Seems to me .030 at the rod end should equal X" of play at the pedal.
