Been spending a some time here and there over a couple of weeks to get my "always in need of adjustment" clutch cable set.
Kept loosening and tube and cable look good. Realized this weekend that a retainer was missing at the pulley end so the cable and its covering were slipping. I got that all fixed up and used a shorter barrel washer. I was driving the car in the hills and go for second gear and POP pedal go to the floor. Coasted downhill 2 miles home...love living in the hills. So I check under the car and there is still full tension on the cable. Pedal just flops. Next step I need to do I guess is pull the carpet again and take a look. I thought when the cable goes it would be loose...if the spring goes, the same. Pedal just flops. Any ideas? |
