Two clutch questions
1. On the car I'm driving now, because the clutch pedal is not far
enough to the left, I have to keep my thighs uncomfortably squeezed together. Any ideas how to "move" it left? Perhaps expanding the surface of the pedal to the left?

You only need to press the clutch pedal occasionally, and mostly not at the same time you are using the brake. I think you need to work on your technique. No, new clutches should not smell....are you an inexperienced driver of manual transmissions?

It feels too tight even when one foot is on the gas and the other on the clutch pedals.
