Need to replace the clutch cable on my 1976 4-cyl car.
Have read that the 914-6 cable is a little more substantial than the 914-4 cable and that the 6-cyl cable will work on 4-cyl cars. Anyone have any experience with this? Also, among the aftermarket replacement suppliers like Cofle, Gemo and Terry, are there big differences in quality? Thank you |

You can but you risk pieces of the white sheath breaking off and becoming jambed in the clutch tube in the tunnel. This can cause a stiff pedal with poor clutch operation. I've also had a few cables that were very tough to remove while replacing. Jim |
