(IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) No issue Joe we have halfass winters here,I can wear overalls and not sweat my ass off under the car,good progress today as not helping builder on my ongoing house reno,car time rules (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) . Got clutch cable (too long) sorted and working on throttle cable ,I was a cheap ass and used a 911 throttle arm modified and drilled the trans for the bell crank pivot,bellcrank (a 911 part) was cut/rewelded to suit full throttle movement. Fixed rubber lined stainless loops to hold cables up on engine case found to be handy and in the right place. Pics to follow and cheers for the comments all. |

Clutch cable sorted by cutting 12mm of clevis end,sorta found my issue as the clutch lever shaft is pretty worn or is a larger for a reason ? certainly not "slotted out" due to wear,changes little as the cable was too long. Kind of went out of the square with the throttle setup ,drilled the trans case and fitted bellcrank pivot,then modded a 911 bellcrank to suit. Locking grubscrews to fit in to cable end and found a heater cable rubber bellows to keep some of the dirt out. Throttle pedal feels good but a little firm,can fine tune that. Its a pain lying on the sandy ground under the car but my nearest shed is full of ever diminishing building materials so will have space soon...I hope. |

You might compare your bellcrank operation to mine. Notice that mine pulls from the top with the cable and the crank pivots down to pull the shaft. I don't get any stiffness or resistance.
