My boss pulled up on my clutch pedal and it made a racheting sound.

Now the clutch pedal is about an 1 1/2" above the brake pedal?

The car still shifts and drives ok but the pedal is to high up.
There is a switch above the pedal it's called the "clutch antisipation switch". Does this double as a stop? I'm sure the sound was from the plastic threads slipping through the jam nut.

Can I just depress the pedal, open the bleeder to purge the exess fluid and re-adjust the switch to it's original location?

 

theres a height adjustment under the dash. need to push petal down and push switch back down.
