    Accelerator cable, clutch cable and a question

    First of all what route does the clutch cable go, does it go under the g.box mount or over the top of the bit thats bolted onto the g.box?

    When fitting the accelerator cable is there a way to find out what notch to put the clip onto?

    ive got the engine in and attached the passengers side driveshaft when i turn the shaft (as if wheels are spinning)should it move so much then stop as if its in gear or move freely both ways mines moveing freely both ways

    hope you can help

    thanks

    clutch cable goes out straight down under steering rack up across chassis leg clips and over the gearbox mount.

    i think the clips adjust the pedal height so you need to decide.

    should move freely if not in gear

    ok, if it was to turn and it spins both ways if its in gear what would be the problem?

    depends. are both wheels on the ground. as from what i can remember if its in gear the engine should the engine should turn also.

    no its on axle stands both sides and only the passengers side drive shaft is connected. when you spin it by hand you can hear transmission moving and also turns the other side where drivers drive shaft connects too.

    The gearlinkage isnt fitted so i tryed putting it in gear by moving the bit on g.box sounds like it went into a gear but dont know which one?

    thanks for your help
