atm it's set at the 5 o'clock position, if that makes sense.....

By ''5 o/c position I'm assuming you mean the actuator arm attached to the G/Box spline...
Cant be arsed to go out & check mine now...but I think the important thing is to get as near as poss a 90* angle between the rod & the actuator bit. This helps in making it a less clunky gear change.
Pedal hight you adjust via the rod.
If your pedal is at 5 o/c then you must have very strange ankles...
Try it at 13.35 hrs & see if it makes a difference...then every hours for the next 12 hours until your happy if not give up & try a jelly or yoghurt...
Making up since 2007, sometimes it's true...Honest...
