Re: [T3] engine mount


Wrong pressure plate; what's the correct one for a 68?  My friend ordered
the parts...can't remember what he got.

So, when we replaced the clutch cable we wouldn't have known if the steel
guide tube was broken?

What is the pedal shaft Jim?

If the adjustment is changing and the cable is not breaking, then the
problem 
must be in the pedal shaft, the steel guide tube, the Bowden tube, or the TO

bearing forks. Or maybe the wrong pressure plate for the 68.

No, this is not the problem.
