Hello
I just picked up a 1970 914 I was hoping for some advice please I seems as if the clutch pedal must be depressed all the way to the floor to avoid grinding However the seat is all the way back to the firewall When I move the seat forward my legs can easily depress the pedal as well as the reach to the gearshifter is better. The only problem I have is when pushing in on the clutch the seat detaches from its setting and slides all the way back I took the seat out oiled the rails and it slides easily by hand Once I put pressure on it, the seat will again snap out of it setting and slide back Has anyone had this happen Could anyone offer a solution? Thanks Mike |

Drill and pin it. Your the only driver, right?

QUOTE(76-914 @ Sep 17 2014, 10:38 AM)  Drill and pin it. Your the only driver, right? That is not a bad idea, however I do like to slide the seat back to get in and out of my car If I pin the position I would have to contort my legs to get into the seat. As time goes by this becomes more painful Thanks for the input Mike |
