A quick tip on removing a rusted clutch cable.

I had to change a clutch cable this weekend. (The casing collapsed) Of 
course lucky me it was rusted. The nylon end that goes through the firewall 
was siezed. it was probably the orginal cable. 19 years old. I tried a few 
different things it wasn't coming loose. So I heated the pipe coming out of 
the firewall with a micro torch. It came out like butter!

(Keeep a fire  extinguisher  handy)

Nearly all men can stand adversity, but if you want to test a man's 
character, give him power.
