I have a 92 loyale 140 miles with 5 speed and the original(assuming) clutch cable broke and I had replaced it with a pioneer part#ca459 cable. after replacement the pedal felt normal until about 3 weeks later and the new cable broke. I tried rigging a different cable system up to it so could get by till another cable got shipped to me but when got rigged up i couldn't pull the fork far enough to shift with my hand. how much is the fork supposed to move from engaged to disengaged? why would I break the cable so quickly?

From thinks I read on another similar thread. Don't wast time and money with aftermarket clutch cables, get one from a dealer. A new oem one will likely last as long as the first. Another aftermarket, as long as you have just experienced.

Get a dealer cable. Aftermarket are complete garbage. They can't handle the difficult angle on the pedal side. Also make sure it's routed under the steering shaft.

I posted about this a couple weeks ago GD advised against an aftermarket cable.  I got one from a dealer. It's been in about a month. no issues yet. good luck. I think it was about $30 or $40.
