While I had my teener up on ramps today for an ill-fated oil change, I figured I'd take advantage of the photo op and take stock of what I've got. Other than a very dirty drivetrain.

A few things made me go hmmmm... So I'm going to post a few pictures here for comment.

First up:
There's a cable that parallels the clutch cable, and goes to the tail end of the transmission. While the clutch cable passes through the engine mount bar, this one passes below it. And in my case, it's pretty badly chafed at that point, as if it rubbed on a tight break-over on a bump.

Where that cable terminates:
