Clutch cable 1992 Legacy. Does anyone have pics of how the clutch cable is supposed to go at the top of the engine? Trying to replace an old cable and having problems getting clutch to engage -- want to make sure I have it threaded correctly. Bought a Subaru OEM part online, different than what was in prevoiusly. Thanks :

I don't have a pic but I can try to explain it. The end with the threads should have a few conical washers or spacers, with a rubber bushing and then two nuts. The washers sit in the cone shaped recess on the release lever. The cable is run back towards the firewall through the cable mount on the transmission. There should be a rubber bushing on the sheath of the cable that fits into the holder on the trans. It might be a tight squeeze but it will press in. From there it runs down and loops around to where it goes through the firewall.

 

Where did you order the cable from? Did you double check the part number on the part you got with what is listed for your car?

Make sure it is routed UNDER the steering shaft.

Thanks for the help. Think I have it now. Bought it online from a "genuine OEM website". charge came through as Stadium Inc dba Lees Summit Honda. They did ask for the VIN number. Speedometer cable purchased at the same time was the correct model.

 

Thanks
