oops- and Towie's comment would be correct if you have too much slack in the outer cable, it will allow the fork to go too far back.

Just grab the outer cable at the firewall and pull it, see how far it moves. I'll photograph mine in a moment.

 

Right- the red line is on the big washer at the rubber spacer. The yellow line is on the circlip that slips into any of the outer cable grooves to give the correct adjustment. If I pull on the outer cable the circlip moves away from the big washer by the amount you can see 10-15mm. Its a bit greasy around there so they didn't show up too well. I converted my auto to a manual and riveted that fitting on the firewall.

thanks every1 i will be giving it a crack asap

 

one question about the video evan, when the cable is operating properly lik yours how much movement shuld be in the fork, the same amount as when u pulled it by hand like 10-15mm or would it be more if u were to do it with the pedal. cheers for the help

the less freeplay at the firewall means the friction point of the clutch is higher on the pedal

 

Lots of freeplay and the clutch will disengage near the flooro
