Hey Guys,
I'm curious if my clutch cable is out of threads at the tranny end. I've drawn what can best be described as the best pen-paper drawing ever. This illustrious illustration illustrates the indignant state of my clutch linkage exactly. The arm that goes to the clutch is all the way against the back of the cable. If I move the arm closer to the end of the threads, what does that do? (to the right in the picture) If I move the arm closer to the back of the car, what does that do? (to the left in the picture) I'd like your guys input because the haynes manual kinda glosses over this part. If I'm out of threads, does that mean I'll be replacing the clutch soon? Thanks guys!

everything mentioned is important. don't piece meal it. the individual shipping is a killer. if the p.o. didn't perfom the services or didn't know, consider them all needing to be done. the shift bushings and the items for the throw arm pivot. when you're ordering parts inquire about the 2 plastic bushings that cradle the ball on the shift lever and include them in the order. the cable could be stretched, the clutch cable end could be spent. while you're in there, replace item #1 pictured above.
you need to network a bit with your fellow texans. there's a wealth of knowledge down there. k |
