clutch cable, Clutch cable Options

[partwerks]

First, does anyone know the size of the nut that goes on where you adjust the terry cable back by the clutch fork, as my mechanic lost/forgot to put the second nut back on and I plan on getting another one at Ace, but don't recall what size it is.

I put on that delrin pulley on back, but also was wondering if that bolt should also be replaced as maybe it has some wear with a bit of play in it as well??

I adjusted the cable and when the clutch grabs, the pedal is about 2" off the floor board. Is that about the correct distance. If not, do I need to tighten it or loosen it?
After waiting about 5 seconds to put in reverse, it does not grind into gear. Is that any indication?

The nut in front is not a Ny-loc, but the outer one was.

I didn't install the cable, the mechanic did. I just put on one of those delrin pulley's on the trans and had to loosen the cable to install it.

I think maybe the bolt that the bushing goes over in the pulley, maybe should be replaced also, as there is a bit of play in it also or is that normal?

That is normal. There is a sleeve that fits into the hole on the pulley which acts as a spacer for the nut. You tighten the nut down onto the sleeve, and there will be a bit of lateral play with the pulley.

You can get away without a nyloc as long as there are two nuts, but I would want at least one of them a nyloc, which may be tough to find locally in 7mm.
