Part No For Clips To Secure Handbrake Cables To Tank?

[Tom Fenton 1,524]

As title, I'm trying to obtain 4 off new clips, the ones that secure the handbrake cables up to the lugs on the fuel tank, you know, the ones that have always disintegrated and fallen off!

 

Now not being a lazy git between M@tt and myself we had a look and ordered the only clips we thought it could be, as the service box drawing didn't show any that looked right. Sure enough they came and are the ones that hold the cable to the bracket off the trailing arm, not a bad thing as my cables are cabletied on there at the moment.

 

But still I have no clips for the tank.

 

So any ideas anyone? Has anyone bought these at any time? I'm hoping they are still available?

but ar... #9 seems like the one (481440)

[Tom Fenton 1,524]

No, thats not it. Those are for the brake fluid pipes. I'm on about the handbrake cables. Thanks for trying though.

i didn't even know they were supposed to have clips! if they're unavailable, you could carefully hand-drill the 'runner' and use cable ties?

[engine killer 5]

hmmm, may I assume that #8, #5 and #7 are all wrong too.

I thought the cables just clipped (badly) into the carriers moulded into the tank?

[welshpug 1,621]

as above, same as the 306?

So tank is different to a 309 Gti?????

 

309 Gtis use what they call a 'hog ring',part number:

 

4754 13

 

[Tom Fenton 1,524]

This is the right clip! For some strange reason not shown on the 205 parts diagram! The 405 also uses them.

 

No 5 shown below, 4 off fitted to clip the cables properly to the tank.

 

 

I shall be ordering some in due course, there is nothing that I find more annoying than droopy handbrake cables on 205's!

[welshpug 1,621]

ahhh!!! I have some of those!

 

13 to be precise! I shall bring them to pugfest for you?

 

they're used on the ZX

 

not been under the 205 for a LOOOooong time

 

does the cable fit directly into the recess in the tank or is there a plastic insert that wraps around the cable?

Never used on the 205, only the rest of the range

[Tom Fenton 1,524]

Learn something new every day, the lugs on the tank look like they will fit so I'm going to try and get some and see.

Theres a rubber wrap round insert thing on 309's

[steve@cornwall 100]

If they fit I shall be getting some! Let us know please, Tom

That would be marvellous if that is OK. Obviously I only need 4. Will then see if they will fit, I think they may do.

[welshpug 1,621]

yes certainly, they're brand new and I have a bakers dozen, used 4 on my ZX when I sorted its brakes for the MOT a few months ago.

[davev 1]

i robbed 4 of these of a scrap 309 thinking mine were missing.

 

i can confirm they fit just like oe.lol.

 

ive had no problems so far, though ive only driven 10 miles for mot and back.

[Tom Fenton 1,524]

Start with handbrake cable drooping down and looking rubbish

 

Refit into guides, then fit clips

 

MUCH better

 

Thanks to Welshpug for posting me the clips.

[welshpug 1,621]

Glad they did the trick Tom, saved you a trip down the pug dealer!

Much better

 

Thought they would fit

 

Funny Pug didn't fit them standard

[Tom Fenton 1,524]

I know, its odd they didn't fit them, as the lugs on the tank are there ready!

And the rubber parts on cables

Hi Tom

 

Sorry to resurrect a very old thread!! I'm just ordering the clips you pictured to secure my cable to my tank.

 

Was wondering what the clips look like that you say "ones that hold the cable to the bracket off the trailing arm" - got any pics / service diagram no so I can check mine are there or whether I need to order them?

[welshpug 1,621]

they look like the ones in the diagram on the first page.

Number 4 on the diagram?
