Hey wassup I am running into a few problems. Just bought a 89 Civic HB w/ 93 dx engine. Car runs good except a few problems:

1)Clutch is hard to depress (feels like clutch cable is tight and needs to be loosened)

2)Shifter has a lot of play>even when in gear the shifter has alot of play (left and right) feels like linkage maybe loose.

3)Gauge cluster does not work except for the temp. gauge.

Anyone know what could be wrong? Thanks for looking. ONE!

 

the shifter wobbling is probably because of the bushing on the bottom of the actual shifter is worn out.. gotta replace it with a new shifter (stock or short shifter) and should solve problem. and if you wanna waste about $20 on some red shift stabilizer bushings.. buy those too. they might help

 

Thanks anyone know bout the other problems? Any idea about the cluster not working? Does harness need to be rewired for the 93 engine? Also can the clutch cable be adjusted? And if so where is it located?
