Bob:
I ordered a cable assembly. This is correct for my early TD anyway. I like
the idea that engine movement won't affect the clutch engagement with the
cable. With the rod (before I put in new engine mounts) I couldn't control
the clutch with any finesse. When I started up from a stand still I ether
squealed the tires or stalled the engine. But I must admit that this problem
went away once the engine mount was firmed up. So maybe I'm just wasting
money on the cable.
