[Sunbeam Talbot Email List] ALPINE FLOOR GEAR CHANGE

The gear change cable Rod sent me is very tight in its outer - it just 
moves - and won't go thru the outer I have in place so I would have to 
change both and I'm not sure how Rod's would work with the 90 degree 
bend it takes from vertical to horizontal near the prop shaft.

Then I sheared the bolt pinching the cable at the gear lever end so 
finished up driving 100kms with two-handed gear changes -  one hand for 
the gear change and the other pushing or pulling the  inner cable. I am 
going to try and find an inner which is between my thin one and Rod's 
thick one .... sounds a bit risqué !!!

Cheers all

George
