Re: Help! Dead 16V



Shannon,

If you've already disengaged the cable from the actuator arm, you've done
the most difficult part. Just go buy the new clutch cable and hook it up. It
is very easy to thread the new cable through the firewall and attach to the
pedal.

Then just make your adjustment so you have about 1/4 inch of play in the
pedal.

Good Luck -- Craig Williams
