FW: Clutch Cable 2

[John Erickson <amigos@elp.rr.com>]

I just finished the cable switch out (manual instead of self-adjusting).  I
didn't need any of the $10 in extra parts Potterman sent me.  What I did
need (and didn't get) was the big fat rubber washer the sits between the
white plastic adjuster and the flange on the transmission housing that the
cable runs through.  I salvaged the one off the old self-adjusting cable by
cutting off all the extra rubber stuff.
