Not wanting to put any undue pressure on the TOB I pulled the cable end as far forward as i could while pushing the clutch lever as far back and adjusted the cable with no free play. Tube is good, cable, pressure plate, flywheel etc all have about 30,000kms. Pedal stop is low and yet I have to push the pedal all the way to the floor to keep from grinding in 1st and reverse. I can not pull the pedal back at all as described in the factory manual. It works but barely- the travel is too far even with the cable adjusted with slight pressure on the shift fork lever.
It seems to me there should always be just the slightest play in the cable- no?? Any thoughts? Pete |

Anyway.. Good tips on transmission only removal?? Save yourself the headache and just drop the combo. It is so much easier. http://www.914world.com/specs/tech_engdrop1.php (IMG:style_emoticons/default/shades.gif) I was afraid someone would say that. I hear ya but its going the be a serious slippery slope there. The engine needs some tuning so if I pull it I'll be making an appointment with the Dyno. Next thing you know the car will be in for paint... which is sorely needs. Gotta get the 911 back on the road- arrgg. I thought this 914 would be a project free car but I guess they never are. This one has definitely turned out to need a lot more attention that I had homed for though. Pete |
