I hate canadian pif paf..

[Keasbey]

1 week ago I just asked for a clutch cable at the canadian pif paf, and then, I came back home, installed it, and then, it was too long. SO I go back to change it, and then the guy just said, try the 8cyl clutch cable. So I go back home with the 8cyl clutch cable, installed it, and this time, guess what? it was too short... Damn, I'm tired..

So, what clutch cable should I try this time???

He gave you the 4cyl clutch cable and it doesnt fit ?
Did you double-check the part number with him ?

 

[5literttop]

Should be the same thing

 

[Keasbey]

on the box it is written (for both) Capri 4cyl/8cyl

I think that it is the same? no?

 

[drizztkun]

Go to NAPA :oP

 

[Keasbey]

Steve, are you one of the partner of NAPA??

 

[drizztkun]

yup each time i mention their name i get 0.50$

a: it is called Crappy tire

b: Canadian/Crappy Tire sucks from coast to coast

C: the Canadian tire in montreal near the airport sucks donkey dick (especially the service manager Jacque) he took the automotive dept 3 days to fix my buddy's 240sx which was a 30 minute job so we had to stay in the city for 3 days more than we wanted.

I agree..i've had a few dealings wih them over parts that didnt fit.

I usually get odd things, cleaners and fluids there. But thats about it!

 

[drizztkun]

who the hell go to CT to get mechanic done?! at worst, you buy the part and you do it in their parking lot

 

[Keasbey]

I've done a brake job for one of my friend yesterday, and the guy was habitually going to CT to make this done, and when I've tried to remove the bolts, it was all crosstread... :S

Clutch cable



The donkey thing had me on the floor.

Anyway - regardless of its a 6 or 8 cyl the clutch cable is the same. I'm not too certain about the 4 cyl however i'm pretty sure it used a T5 so it would use the same cable.

Cheers!

the 4 and 8 are the same? Not sure about that?

Keasbey, stupid question. Where are you running the clutch cable? I'm curious because your doing a T5 swap?

Keasbey, stupid question. Where are you running the clutch cable? I'm curious because your doing a T5 swap?

Yeah I'm doing a T-5 swap, and a 2.3T swap... I've just run it into the speedocalbe hole, after that I have change the speedo cable to another hole..

 

[Boss 351]

oh ok

I bought my clutch cable at pif paf and it went in fine.

Do you have a bellhousing from a 2.3T or a plain 2.3? I doubt there would be a difference but if you have a bellhousing from a 2.3T, order a 2.3T cable...

And yeah Canadian pif paf can suck a lot!

 

[Keasbey]

It is the same, sorry for the french word, but I don't even know how to spell it in english so... do you have some "lousse" when you press on your clucth pedal?
