ABSTRACT:
A clutch tension regulator between a distal end of a clutch cable from a clutch pedal in a motor vehicle and a clutch lever having an aperture which operates a clutch mechanism within a transmission housing. The clutch tension regulator comprises a tautness member connected in an adjustable manner into the aperture of the clutch lever. A flexible member passes over the tautness member. A unit is provided for securing a first end of the flexible member in a stationary manner onto the transmission housing. An assembly is provided for coupling a second end of the flexible member to the distal end of the clutch cable. The tautness member can be manually adjusted to increase and decrease tension on the clutch cable, to make the clutch mechanism easier to operate.
