Hello all....I have been tackling a clutch cable problem and finally closing in on a solution....but my existing failed cable is so stubborn upon removal that it seems that the inner cable is welded to the outer housing....I have heard about the clutch cable becoming the ground for the car and I wonder how often this occurs and what are the symptoms?? I would like to prevent this from occurring while I am in clutch cable repair mode....thank you very much!!

Thank you all...it is all making sense to me....my clutch cable seems to be JB Welded in place....I am sure loving my borescope as it provides so much info instead of guessing...plus my hands are like catcher's mitts so getting in tight places is not so easy. I will inspect the ground cable when I install the clutch cable. Do all of the other brown wire grounds do enough grounding or is the tranny ground the big daddy? Thank you guys,
