After finally getting my newly built engine sorted i stated to put a few miles on it to run it in.

That was untill my clutch cable snapped last night Luckily less then half a mile away from my house.

After ringing MK up today and talking to a few people im still not sure exactley what cable it was, ive been told Transit, Sierra, Cortina and Capri.

Below is a picture I found on the internet with no part number but it is exactley the same. It measures approx 770mm from the end of each threaded end and 870mm long cable (type 9 ball to eyelet).


If anyone can identify this cable or if anyone one has one going spare it would help alot.

Thanks

Steve

This of any use?

On hindsight it appears a little longer than yours, but may be a good place to start.

Also, The 1.6 ohc transit are quite short and have the same cable ends, but have different adjusters.

Mine is not like in your photo i have a Capri one fitted that has a thread at one end and a plastic bobbin at the other end
thats on the outer cable

Mine is a Capri one, but I don't know the part number. Sounds about the right length.

Burtons have a load in different lengths and quote the QH part no

I have 2 clutch cables 1 new and the one I had on the car for 2 years and 6000 miles they are the se as you're picture £12 for the new one and you can have the old one free as a spare
