Clutch Pedal

On so how are you setting this up. I have made my own pedal but have no idea how to connect the cable and set up an adjuster.

What sort of distance will I need between the furlcrum (Piviot point) and the cable attachment.

Engine/Gearbox is a ford 1.8CVH gearbox and XR2 engine.

Chassis is MK Indy (2002/2003)





Scot's do it better in Kilts.

Just another thought.
With pinto-engine and MT9 gearbox, is there any spring on the clutch-cable?

No spring on the Cable as far as I can tell.


Can manage the gearbox end easy. What about the pedal end.

The clutch diaphragm supplies the spring but a return spring at the pedal will help release the last bit so the bearing doesn't rub. My locost has a Mk2 Escort pedal and Capri cable (same). I just cut the pedal and put a straight piece in it.

I went into the RSPCA office the other day. It was so small you could hardly swing a cat in there.
