I had the pleasure of experiencing stop and go traffic without the luxury of a clutch yesterday. Seems my 33 year old clutch cable has had enough. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/dry.gif)
Does anyone have any tips for making the replacing of this go as smoothly as possible? Any special tools I might need? Etc? Thanks in advance (IMG:style_emoticons/default/pray.gif) |

Attach your old cable foward end to your new cable aft end and pull it trough (or vice versa I forget which way you pull it out), when you pull your cable out the new one is in place. This way you won't have to feed it blindly.
other than that should be straigh forward. |
