Ok here it goes. I was driving to my friends house when i noticed every time i tried to change gears it was hard to put my car into a gear. It felt like the clutch stayed engaged and did not disengage as far as it should. I noticed my clutch pedal was a little cricked and didn't go in as far as it should. When i got home i looked under the dash and saw this....



I need to get this fixed ASAP! because i attend College and this is my only ride.
What all do i need to remove to fix this? Whats the easiest way to do this without taking out a bunch of things? Anything you guys can help me with will do!

Thanks again Honda-Tech friends!

 

unbolt the 4 12 mm nuts, Theres 2 of them to the right of it in the pic. Then go pull one at your local Junk Yard

 

It is pretty common problem. There is lots of other threads on it. It definitely sucks.

That too or if you have a welder weld that baby back to health.

 

I know i have to unbolt those 4 Bolts, But what else do i need to unbolt or take off? I'm sure it doesn't just slip right off though...

Thats what i was thinking. But will it work or will it break again pretty easily?

 

grab a flashlight and take off the gas pedal cable and clutch cable under the dash,

USE GAS MIG WELDER to form a puddle of weld to form a very strong bond

 

Would that be the easiest thing to do? Or should i just grab another one from a local Junk Yard?

 

if you live the heck far from a junkyard i would do this welding. if you live a block then go get it quick.

 

if your gonna pull it to weld it, why not replace it with a good working piece instead?

Well thats what im saying. If its gonna be a hassle to get it out then i might as well weld it. But then again i live down the street from a Junk Yard so im sure i could get another one. I think welding it would be easier though wouldn't it?

if you know how to weld i mean have a good skill on it then do it on the car. If you can't weld and don't have sturdy hands you mights weld a loom of wires and start a fire. Get a used one from the junkyard if you know you can not weld ok.

 

My uncle is a certified welder and has been welding before i was born haha. Hes gonna be the one to do it. But i want to know how straight do i have to get it because im sure it matters...

 

get some white out and make a straight line on a straight area then cut for smooth edges and weld.

 

Ill try it and see how it turns out! Any more advice???

 

you might need to pull the brakebooster out a little from under the hood to get the bracket to clear out.

See its doing S**t like that which i don't wanna have to go through!

 

You better prepare to buy a new one from dealer. Mine broke twice after welding it. It'll hold a couple months after you weld it, but it'll break again . I bought a new one from dealer cost around 80 shipped.

</TD></TR></TABLE> ditto, i just bought a new one also. i would recommend buying a new one and welding it then spraying it down with some rustoleum to have that extra support. 80 shipped for me also. but look for "auto to manual pedal swap" in the search, theres a really awesome write up on how to remove the pedal assembly and drop the streering column, it took me about 30-45 mins to do with that write up and the proper tools

 

and theres the reasion i went with a tegy assembly lol
