Post by: stracgti on 29 December 2005, 16:27

just moved the dub to give it a rinse and the clutch biting point is really high  :undecided:

If its got an auto adjusting cable then change it for a manual one.

Check the cable where it attaches to the gearbox, if its big & chunky then its auto, if its threaded with a lock nut then its manual :)

Either way I'd recommend you get a new one and replace it :)
