I find that I have to keep tightening my clutch every couple of weeks. In an AA catalogue, one of their little window box tips says that if this happens then you need to reweld your clutch tube.
Is this true? Where is the clutch tube located? tx |

(IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/agree.gif) welding is not my thing either, but I would like to learn (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/welder.gif)
I don't want to quote shop prices for Brad Mayeur, but for just a little over $200 I had the clutch tube fixed and few minor things checked or replaced. I think it was money well spent. YMMV (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/smile.gif) I would think a qualified shop could do this and it shouldn't cost and arm and a leg. I can't believe how well my car shifts, the broken tube was making it hard to shift in reverse, 4th & 5th. If you have the time to do it on your own, I say go for it just watch the fuel lines while (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/welder.gif) |
