When I depress the clutch I here a clicking in the tunnel..The cable is maxed out with spacer nuts at the transmission end..What is the easiest way to do it as not to cut into the tunnel or weld..Is there a way?
Thanks,914 |

The Terry cable appears to have a bad rep (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif) ,have you adjusted the clevis right up at the pedal,mine required cutting back by 12mm with all area's rebuilt,is your clutch worn,has the nylon ball in the throwout arm collapsed etc ,all that sort of stuff.

My 6 had a problem with this. The click of death. The PO put a U clamp to fix it toward the firewall. Take out the center tray between the seats and remove the cover and have someone push the clutch and take a look. You will see if it has broken lose back there. There are pictures on line showing where the Clutch tube is welded to the center tunnel where the shifter and wires, and gas lines go. Some guys get creative with clamps but there is only one great way to fix it right. You have to go in deep and weld. After removing the gas lines Bob |
