[QUOTE="dubdubz, post: 429486, member: 1072"] Thanks guys for responding, the one I have was listed as 3200mm, but was more like 3180? And this did seem about 20mm too short. The gsf one I bought was listed as a later one and is supposed to be 3215, this allowed the nut to be quite easily attached at rest, but I couldn't get the pedal to feel firm.So is too long, I probably had 25mm of thread left, so it was a fair way down, I perhaps should have tried but figured that when the cable stretched I have no adjustment (and the need to adjust would be miles from home!) I have the short one in and around 15mm of thread on the rear of the wingnut, so probably 50mm left. The pedal feels quite heavy and I'm thinking its too tight? The pedal does have some slack before it gets really firm. let me rephrase that, the spring tension is less for about 1" then feels heavier. Pedal is high but I haven't driven my bus for 8 months so it feels weird anyway... Dumb question how do I tell if the clutch is being operated at rest because the cable is too tightly adjusted?
