Default Clutch pedal catch-point

Sometimes it catches high and other times low - the hydraulic assist servo? Another winter project.

Made my first long trip this weekend - 3h each way - keeping it under 80 was a challenge - it really flies! Mechanically it didn't miss a beat. The new Potenzas are quiet but seem to wander a bit.

I just recently had a clutch pedal sticking to the floor issue. Not sure if it's much help, but after replacing my clutch master cylinder I noticed that for sometime my clutch engage/ disengage point was a little different. I chalked it up to possible air in the system. After driving it for a bit it seems to have settled at a higher point in the pedal travel than I'd like but its still very firm and seems to be working well. How long has it been like this? Did anything change?
