OK cable fitted and not toooo much hassle once stuff is out of the way. Seems the old cable was not quite fitted on the bulkhead.
The new cable follows to old cable route and after it self adjusted, seems a little bit lighter in use. The spring assist device is off for the moment.
The pressure plate seems to "creak" a bit so may need the new clutch kit fitting soon, but ok for now.
The bite point is about 1 1/2 to 2 inches from pedal full pressed down to the floor.
Road test later today.
All good. The old cable inner was a little bit stiff/draggy but the clevis end looked much weaker than the first line one. A "Dura" make cable. Perhaps a clip was missing from the clevis as the remains seems to suggest a clip was meant to be there keeping the clevis sides from splaying, will post a pic tomorrow.
This suggests that the old cable was not fitted correctly with the inner showing some wear of the plastic coating to the inner cable.
lost the picture of the clevis, will re take and post wednesday.
