From my 31 pages of trans notes:
*Clutch cable The clutch cable being too loose is probably one of the most common reasons that people’s shifting sucks. If your cable is too loose then you will not be able to fully disengage the pressure plate from the clutch disk and you will keep power to the transmission. If it is really loose then reverse will grind when shifting into it from a standstill. There is no way that this should happen if the clutch is fully disengaged. To properly adjust your clutch, you need to tighten the cable until the clutch disengages at about 1/4 to 1/3 pedal travel (See figure 1 in appendix). If the clutch disengages too early then it is too tight, too late then it is too loose. Attached image(s) ![]() |

Also, it is often that the replacement cable is too long and thus you have run out of threads on the tranz end before you have adjusted it properly. I always put a small piece of tubing, about 19mm long, under the adjust nut. This also keeps you from having to tighten the damn lock nut 19mm onto the cable end.

Can you expand on the 19mm long tubing. What is the tubing made of? Does the tubing back up to the trunnion piece in the tranny arm? Thanks, Buck |
