It doesn't affect anything though. If anything it removes some of the slop at the top by causing the pedal to rest at the beginning of its travel. As soon as you press on the pedal, the clutch starts moving. By using a spring, the pedal rests higher and will move an inch before it begins to do anything. You just don't feel it with the spring because it makes the pedal numb.
