BTW, one thing I have to mention is it appears from your pic the cable looks like it is maxed out i.e. Stretched. If you can not get any further then where you are at in the above pic, you may need a new cable or see if you can get a shorter one. My 2 cents. The cable has to work triple duty with it's current set up from what I can tell.

That cable is brand new. Hasn't even seen the road yet. I had to max it out, otherwise the clutch pedal felt like a loose tooth, it just dangled on the cluster. When I bought the new cable I compared it to the old cable on the floor of my garage, and except for the rotted boot of the old one, they were identical in every way. I will do the removing and cleaning of the helper arm and clutch arm as you suggested. I'll have to get out the Bentley manual for those though, never tackled that job before!
