Re: [T3] Clutch cable/tranny blues


Jim -

I think that I figured it out, or you tell me. I was under the impression
that the clutch arm (on the tranny0 was alway suppose to be straight up at a
90 degree angle. I guess I thought that because in all the books it is
always shown that way. I am hoping that it isn't always the case. To adjust
mine it has to be at maybe -15 degrees. Am I correct?

Thanks - Wilson

I'm not sure what you're saying.

Do you mean that you can't get a dip in the tube AND that the cable is
always loose?

If you can't get a dip in the tube, then check where the clutch tube exits
the 
pan. Is the weld broken there?

If the cable is always loose, broken welds, as above could do this, but it
could also be that the cable eye has slipped off at the clutch pedal end.
