Thanks for the info. I did crawl back under there and was able to pull the cable back towards the rear of the car from inside the tunnel. I will, once it warms back up, go back out and remove the pedal assembly. What did Kurt mean when he said he used a safty wire? did it get used to hold the pedal upright? I will not be able to get back out to work on her until probably Wednsday, so I will post again when I check it. --- Jim Adney <jadney@vwtype3.org> wrote: > Bob already gave you the right answer on this.
