From my 31 pages of trans notes:
*Clutch cable The clutch cable being too loose is probably one of the most common reasons that people’s shifting sucks. If your cable is too loose then you will not be able to fully disengage the pressure plate from the clutch disk and you will keep power to the transmission. If it is really loose then reverse will grind when shifting into it from a standstill. There is no way that this should happen if the clutch is fully disengaged. To properly adjust your clutch, you need to tighten the cable until the clutch disengages at about 1/4 to 1/3 pedal travel (See figure 1 in appendix). If the clutch disengages too early then it is too tight, too late then it is too loose. Attached image(s) |

I removed the console, carpet and shifter. Tube in the tunnel is solid.
Solid also where the tube comes out of the firewall. Mike |

Mike Were you able to look at the tube inside the tunnel with a mirror while moving the clutch? The tube is rather stiff. The cable pulls it away toward the center of the tunnel. Other than this I don't have anything for you. Lots of luck |
