    Incorrectly routed clutch cables....

    I understand an incorrectly routed clutch cable will make the pedal feel stiffer than it should.

    But will it cause gear selection problems??? Because im currently finding it very hard to get into most gears..

    The cable sits very close to the manifold and i think it have been stretched due to the heat exposure.

    Thanks.

    i think its only when running, but i will check tommorow.

    As far as i know the clutch is the original (from the williams engine), has done 60k it shouldnt be knackered yet surely!

    Box is pretty shagged anyway, but your right, the syncros are taking a right bashing at the mo because of this problem!
