Damn auto adjust clutch cable

[the caveman]

Thanks Caveman for the info on how to fix the auto cable. I have never owned an auto cable personally and this will be quite helpful if I ever do. I do have a bentley and I have no clue if they are covered in there or not, I have never looked for them.

Please let us mods know if there is more we could do to make it more enjoyable for everyone. I know we all have different experiences and different opinions, which is what makes it get better sometimes.

Thank you for not letting me hate everyone

Manual cable arrived. It's a Gemo. After disconnecting the old cable from the clutch lever on the tranny, can the cable be unhooked from the clutch pedal without removing anything to get access (instr cluster? knee bar?).

Anyone want to buy a used self adjust cable? lol

So my clutch has been annoying lately so today I reset it like caveman said to, the ratchet device didn't want to release but once I got it done the pedal feels way nicer.

I think the reason the auto adjust cables were making clutches outlast manual cabled ones was because the manual cables were never adjusted and as the clutch wore the cable held it partway open allowing major slippage to occur.

Yup. like 1/8th inch play at the pedal?
