Clutch cable. Porsche 911 2.2ltr 1969-70 › 91142321001

Clutch Cable

The OE Match Clutch Cable is a replacement for the original mechanical clutch operating cable fitted to early Porsche 911 models.

Fits:

• Porsche 911 1969 - 1970 2.2L  LWB (F)

Diagram ref no 55

Designed as an aftermarket alternative to the Genuine Porsche component, it helps restore correct clutch pedal operation, making gear changes smoother and more predictable.

What Does It Do?

The clutch cable links the clutch pedal to the clutch release mechanism at the gearbox.

Pressing the pedal pulls the cable, operating the release mechanism and disengaging the clutch so the driver can select another gear.

When the pedal is released, the clutch re-engages and transfers engine power to the transmission.

Why Is It Important?

A correctly adjusted clutch cable provides consistent pedal movement and allows the clutch to disengage fully.

A worn or stretched cable can affect gear selection, increase pedal effort and make driving less comfortable.

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 replacing the clutch cable if you notice:

• Heavy, stiff or uneven clutch pedal movement
• Difficulty selecting gears
• Excessive clutch pedal free play
• A clutch pedal that fails to return correctly
• Visible fraying, corrosion or cable damage

A broken clutch cable can prevent the clutch from disengaging.

Installation & Adjustment

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

Ensure the replacement cable follows the correct routing and adjust the clutch pedal free play according to Porsche specifications.
