Clutch Pains

[charlo99 0]

my clutch is f***ed at the moment pedal on the ground,the cable is still in 1 piece,

it was giving me a bit of bother for a while i thought the cable was goin so i would adjust it a bit and it was fine for a bit then it would go again i'd adjust it an fine again.

but now the pedals on the floor,had a look and noticed the bracket that holds the cable in the engine bay was pulled forward but looked to me like it needs to spring back or something have a pic of it but dont no how to post it with this

Sounds like your clutch release bearing has gone or the clutch is just well gone! It will need replacing with a new item.

HOLD ON!!!! Is yours a BE1 gearbox? (lift up reverse) If so first check that there is a 70m long 6mm diameter bar fitted between the clutch arm on the gearbox and the L shaped lever the cable goes into - these often drop out if the cable is too slack. Also the L shaped lever can bend/ break Both will give your symptoms and are easily sorted as long as you can get the parts easily
