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) |

Carrying a spare cable never hurts, but you should also have a spare lock nut and clevis. When the cable breaks at the cable pulley, the broken end of the cable with lock nut and clevis get tossed aside. Depending on your location should that happen you may or may not find these pieces in the road. Ask me how I know. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/dry.gif) . Without those pieces that new cable won't be much help.
