For the past week or so I've been having to adjust my clutch every couple of days, the screws are backing off and have to be tightened up again.
The lock nut must not be holding it's spot like it should be. Should I buy another lock nut, I guess just any other one would work? Suggestions! (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/uploads_offsite/209.85.62.26-11654-1319232349.1.gif) |

That tube was not made to handle the force applied by Adam's clutch. He needs a reenforced tube, or a different clutch.
...or the solution we already told him to try as it would lower strain on the tube. |

or a different clutch. Www.notgonnahappen.com/ever (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) I still need to look into increasing the diameter of the cable wheel, just haven't had the chance or time. But that's more or less related to pedal feel only. Come to think of it last time I was under the car I do recall a funky looking gob of rtv near the cable tube exit. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/idea.gif) I'll investigate in the morning. |
