While pulling the motor from my friends car for a top end renewal, and removing the clutch cable I found a 13mm sockett under the adjustment nut. Someone
had put it there so they could adjust the clutch. I took it off and reattached the cable, but without it there was not enough adjustment. My first thought was a very stretched or wrong cable, but its the same length as a new one I have. Pulled clutch today. There is about an eighth inch of clutch left to the rivets. How thick are the faces on a new clutch?
Would a worn out clutch cause the extreme adjustment problem?

Thanks,

Your flywheel has been resurfaced. Steve

Resurfaced too much I assume?

Maybe not, a lot of 914's have some sort of spacer. You will need to measure the Flywheel to see if it is within spec. Steve

Which cable do you have? The Terry cable basically is too long. It should be threaded about 1 extra inch and the threading cut off by 1 inch. Even with the spacer, you need to cut the cable.

I am presently using a spare cable pulley bushing, but will use a die to extend the threads before I re-install everything.
