914World.com _ 914World Garage _ Clutch Cable over adjustment?

Posted by: Pdr1787 Oct 24 2020, 05:30 PM

Howdy,

Does anyone else have to add extra spacers on the clutch cable to get proper adjustments? I have to use a lot of spacers and I’m not sure if it’s the cable stretching or about to snap. I just feel like it isn’t right and I’m getting my car ready for the rally in November.

Also a side note. Anyone have a problem with there seat adjust not locking into place and always sliding back? And tips would be greatly appreciated.

I use a 8mm tube nut as the spacer.
The extra length has been an issue for quite a few years.
Tried to see if and what other cars it might use the same cable. No luck.

Nobody really mentions this... But I cut some off of the end by the pedal. There is a bunch of extra thread there you don't use.

Sorry don't remember how much I cut off.
