I am about to be driving my 914 home without a clutch cable. I've done this before in other cars, but not in the 914.
What rpm's should I be aiming for when trying to shift into the various gears? |

Give the accelarator a quick blip and gently push it into the next gear as the rpms wind down. It helps to skip second gear too.
