Need a clutch bit ......

[John Bowman]

Hi All
Have got a 440 L plate with the 1.6 engine and a cable operated clutch. Now where the cable attaches to the clutch pedal there is a connector with a rubber bush in it which bolts to the very top end of the pedal, and the cable hooks into the other end of this connector. The rubber bush has disintegrated and allowed the connector to twist and sheared the bolt. Now i can replace the bolt ok but anybody know where i can get the connector . Its an aluminium casting about a couple of inches long with the rubber bush bonded into the wide end. To be honest it seems very complcated for what it is . Anyway any thoughts would be greatly appreciated . Many thanks John

that is part of the clutch fork you may need to get a new one try on ebay uk. but to fit it, the gearbox needs taken out .

I haven't checked this on my 440, but it seems to me that John is talking about the clutch pedal end of the cable? If he is, does the gearbox really have to come out to fix this?
