Clutch lever replacement

Let's try to know what will happen today, if the longer clutch operating lever was applied on the adequate position instead of normal parts.
Before getting into the interesting experimental trial, deepest consideration must be done especially on the lever angular position, because the connecting position is the one to decide the angular direction while the clutch actions, straight movement being changed into the arc action.
A few splines are set inside of the hole to adapt with the release shaft. I know the importance of initial angular setting of the operating lever, the best concentration and checking are required in the situation.
Many difficulties must be come across to me on the way to do that, I must overcome all of them today.

Report and description on this later:




The clutch operating lever being on the extension of the release lever is fixed only by a tiny C ring, but for this small parts, VW 1302 Super Beetle cannot go.

The difference of the clutch pedal pressure is easily imagined from the photo.

The access from the under side of the vehicle must be difficult and requires some professional skills and special tools, as for my working today, thanks to the big hole made by the air conditioner setting engineer 40 years ago, today's task was relatively easily performed.

Fixed genuine longer clutch operating lever.

The fatigue after driving for 3 hours is like nothing on my left leg, pedal touch was remarkably improved by today's efforts.
I feel some strong passion on air cooled Beetle deeper than before, how come?
