Default Re: ? about if need Clutch Quadrant

The small piece is the locking pawl and it takes up for clutch wear, when I changed my clutch I left the cable and Quadrant, at first the clutch didn't engage unti the pedal was way too high, mine finally popped into place while driving but ive been told to readjust the pawl just mash the clutch pedal to the floor and sidestep it a few times and it'll pop back to correct position, car not running ofcourse

Default Re: ? about if need Clutch Quadrant

Am I correct about the resetting of the stock system USMC302?

I may be putting in a new quadrant and good cable in soon, as my $25 autozone cable is already stretching, 4 weeks old, the stocker sure lasted forever.

Should I change the Quad if it's not broke or just get a new cable?
The cable is easy to change, but I'm not looking forward to changing the quadrant!

Do you prefer the firewall adjuster or the cable w/adjustment at tranny?
Thanks Man

Your correct about the adjustment for a stock quadrant, the stock ones are made out of plastic so they will eventually wear and not adjust as well and not hold adjustment etc.. It's good to just throw in a quality quadrant with the cable, I think it's cheaper as a package deal anyway. As far as preference, I have only used the adjustable cables that adjust at the tranny, but think the firewall adjuster would be an easy and quick alternative. Good luck either way.
