Removal
1. Working in the engine compartment, turn the clutch adjusting nut counterclockwise to obtain maximum cable play. Remove the pressure spring. Unhook the cable from the clutch release lever and release the cable housing from its mounting bracket (see photo).
2. Moving along the cable, release it from all ties and clamps.
3. While working inside the cabin, move the floor carpet away from the top of the clutch pedal to gain access to the cable end.
4. Press the locking bracket and release the cable from the upper end of the pedal.
5. Return to the engine compartment and feed the cable through the bulkhead, paying attention to the rubber O-ring seal at the end of it.
Inspection
6. Inspect the cable for wear. Check for worn ends and damaged casing. Check the operation of the cable - it should move smoothly and easily in the casing, without jerking. Remember that a cable that works well outside the car may be much more difficult to move in the working position in the engine compartment. Replace the cable if it is damaged or shows signs of serious wear, transferring the adjusting nut, washers and rubber seals from it to the new cable.
Installation
7. Apply a small amount of multipurpose grease to the cable ends. Install the rubber O-ring on the pedal end of the cable and route the cable through the firewall.
8. While working inside the vehicle, install the cable onto the clutch pedal pin and secure it with the locking clip.
9. Working in the engine compartment, make sure the cable is routed correctly, then pass the lower end of the cable through the mounting bracket and attach the cable to the clutch release lever. Secure the cable along its length with all the ties and clamps.
10. Adjust the length of the cable as described in Section 1.
