Title: What am I missing?
Post by: ad_car_08 on October 11, 2018, 07:09
 Having a poke round the engine bay last night, I noticed a black cable tie holding a gear selector cable (perhaps?)
What am I missing? What should be there?!

You'd be missing one of these: (see attachment)'

Very easy to bugger them up when you take them out and then they won't go back.

That will make for a bit of a sloppy gear change.

Hmm... Bugger... 😐

Do you recommend anywhere I can get one?

You may also be missing the little paper clip things that go through the top of the pin that the gear cables sit on.

If you are missing the little spring clip, a split-pin will do.

Dean doesn't list most of his stuff.

Send him a message or call.
