Any Idea why my clutch keeps going out of adjustment??
73.5 911T with 78 SC motor. It was grinding real bad into first and reverse. I adjusted the clutch and it was like a dream!! now a week latter and it is doing the same thing? Is the clutch tube damaged (rust) or something? Car has no rust otherwise.
CLutch is a few years old but low miles. Looks like cable was replaced at the same time. Thanks |

Here are the possible culprets:
Cable is stretching due to fraying; Cable end is coming loose (rare); Hole in Clutch arm in pedal cluster where clutch cable attaches is wearing through; Pin that goes through clutch pedal and into Clutch arm is giving way and will eventually break leaving pedal on the floor; Pin securing clutch shaft to fork in bell housing going bad (big trouble, .50 part but engine comes out); Pedal bushings are going bad; Clutch arm getting chewed up because bushings are bad. There may be others, but that is all that I can think of. Good luck.
