Clutch cable. Porsche 911 2.2ltr 1970-71 › 91142321006

Clutch Cable

Restore smooth, predictable clutch operation in your classic Porsche 911 with this OE Match replacement clutch cable.

Fits:

• Porsche 911 1970 - 1971 2.2L  LWB (F)

Designed as an aftermarket alternative to the Genuine Porsche component, this cable connects the clutch pedal to the clutch release mechanism, allowing the driver to engage and disengage the clutch when changing gears.

What Does It Do?

The clutch cable transfers movement from the clutch pedal to the clutch release mechanism.

When the pedal is pressed, the cable operates the clutch release system, temporarily disconnecting engine power from the gearbox so the driver can change gear smoothly.

Releasing the pedal allows the clutch to engage again.

Why Is It Important?

A correctly functioning clutch cable provides consistent pedal movement and reliable clutch control.

A stretched, damaged or incorrectly adjusted cable can make gear changes difficult and prevent the clutch from fully disengaging.

Why Do Clutch Cables Fail?

Common causes include:

• Fraying or stretching of the inner cable
• Corrosion caused by moisture
• Wear from repeated clutch operation
• Damage to the outer cable housing
• Incorrect adjustment or routing

When Should It Be Replaced?

Consider replacement if you experience:

• Heavy or inconsistent clutch pedal movement
• Difficulty selecting gears
• A clutch pedal that fails to return correctly
• Excessive free play or adjustment problems
• Visible cable damage or broken strands

A failed clutch cable can leave the vehicle unable to disengage the clutch.

Installation Notes

Inspect the clutch pedal linkage, cable connections and release mechanism before fitting.

Route the replacement cable correctly and adjust the clutch pedal free play according to Porsche specifications.
