Clutch pedal rebound force increases by only 17%. This is a marginal decrease in leverage but is just enough to restore that "feel."

There are no inherent problems with this change. The only possible issues would result from errors in performing the procedure.

1. Contamination of the hydraulic system. Cleanliness is key.

2. Air in the system from incomplete bleeding or by draining the reservoir. Follow the procedure carefully.
