Adjustment Of Clutch Cable

Recommended Posts

johny105_y2k

Hi done a search and

http://forum.205gtidrivers.com/index.php?showtopic=11162

seems to contradict the problem i have.

just put my engine and box back in and the clutch what went in was very good, nearly new.

having adjusted the pedal to the very end of the cable the pedal is still very very high up and bites right at the top. i cant adjust it anymore or it'll come off.

it obviousley `cant stay as it is its quite hard to drive.

i'm at my wits end here

would a new cable sort it out?

 

cheers johny

Theres usually roughly 25mm worth of thread left on the cable with the 10+13mm nuts on a decent cable.

 

But basically, as you adjust the nuts in and out, watch how the pedal moves, and once its level with the brake pedal job done :)

After fitting a new engine I had a similar problem but the clutch settled down with use; try pressing the pedal repeatedly for a while and see if it starts to sink as the clutch settles. I also drove with the clutch pedal partially depressed which seemed to help.

Is the plastic clip that holds the cable onto the gearbox located properly? Could be your problem.
