72 n600 clutch pedal adjustment
I just bought a early 72 sedan , and its a nice driver but when you pop the clutch , it way to fast , as in as soon as you lift your foot the clutch grabs its just way to fast , is there any way of making the clutch engage farther from the floor ? thank you for any help

Re: 72 n600 clutch pedal adjustment
Congrats on your purchase.
Of course there is.
You're probably going to want a copy of the service manual from http://www.honda600coupe.com/Manuals,_b ... ments.html, if only for adjustments like this.
The Parts Catalog is handy for figuring out what part you need to search the 'net for since you can't just get anything from Honda any more except oil filters and some bolts. Parts all have numbers (with dashes in them).
http://www.honda600coupe.com/Honda_600_ ... Manual.pdf page 31 (page with page number 31 on it, not page 31 of the PDF) tells how to do this adjustment at the clutch. It's on the right hand side of the engine (facing the car from the front). Fig 2-46 has a picture, apparently with the heat exchange removed, but you should still be able to reach it even with the heat exchange in place. The adjustment is a matter of releasing a lock nut (a nut tightened against another nut to keep both of them from moving), adjusting that other nut to get the play right, then tightning the lock nut back into place.
