clutch cable issue

[acezeesawtooth]

ok so i put my clutch cable on today while puting the blasty back together and i adjusted it and then when i went to pull the lever in to test it out... it goes POP!!! and the little arm that holds it in place infront of the clutch arm just pops up... it wont hold the cable in place there is to much pressure for it. any suggestions on how to fix that?.. ill show you a pic so you can tell me if im missing something and if i am please post a pic of what it is. thanks guys

you seem to have a bracket missing that bolts under the left back cylinder nut. that bracket you used is meant for the stator wires--not designed to hold down pivot force of the clutch cable! il see if i have a pic.

I agree with blaner, your missing the correct clutch bracket thats under the back jug bolt.

this fits under the back cylinder nut. without it, the clutch has no leverage

yes.. i was watching CSI miami S8...

Yep thanks bro I knew I had something off

 

[acezeesawtooth]

any chance anyone has a pic of that bracket on their engine so i know i have the right one lol

now you pushing my limits of picture availability! jest ry googling it or something but the bracket has a tab on it that is bent down. This is fits against the cylinder projection with the bolt hole in and stops it moving/rotating when you pull the clutch. it will only work properly one way

Same sh*t happened to me a few weeks back, and i bought it from the dealer! I had to take a picture to the F*$% dealer to show them what i needed! Ebay had one around that time for like $3, i paid $17 at the dumbass dealer before i found it.
