Blacksmith Posted July 25, 2004 Share Posted July 25, 2004 Greetings all! Was driving & thought the clutch cable was about to give up; however, on opening up the hood, inspecting the clutch cables, found there were not one but two cables. I am used to only one in old Subarus. This one has one cable adjusted tight, the other adjusted loose. I have not seen anything like it. When I tightened the loose cable, it caused the gears to grind. The cables themselves seemed to be in good condition, not needing replacement. I don't have a manual and someone stole the reference copy out of our local library. I can't drive to any other library as I live in a remote mountain town and just have this one Subaru. Q: Is a model with a HH clutch hydrolic or vacuum-assisted? Q: Can anyone give me advise as to proper adjustment or, locating the problem(s)? thanks!

Blacksmith Posted July 25, 2004 Author Share Posted July 25, 2004 thanks for the response, I'm going to change the clutch cable,(it came with a spare) and if that doesn't do it, I'll be asking if anyone knows how to check for a broken or bent clutch fork. My little voice is telling me to ask about that next. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
