Thanks to those that gave great, productive tips and suggestions, especially for your time to post pictures for me. And BTW, I chose not to comment on a couple of replies. There are many people on this forum who know this car very well and are interested in helping you. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) But if you start your post criticizing this forum by claiming it SUCKS, or at least the search function, the people who work hard to develop and maintain it might be a bit offended. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/sad.gif) Here's more advice. Don't get under the car if it's only held up with your jack. Use a good jack stand before crawling under. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/bye1.gif) Thanks for your advice. I did say I have two jack stands, plus I made sure I said the "search function", not the whole site. Please let's move on! |

While you are in there; take a look at that wheel the clutch cable turns on. Dirt and grease work into the cable strands. The abrasion will cause the cable to break there..in due time.
I clean the wheel 2x a year |

I clean the wheel 2x a year I'll check that out on the next day off. I did adjust the cable but I guess it wasn't enough. |

Part that the clutch pulley attaches to? The "clutch cable roller bracket"? #25 on the exploded parts diagram. You should contact AA and request a FREE paper catalog. Identifying parts correctly takes seconds, you have part #s at your fingertips and you don't even need the Internet.
