EMPI Clutch Adjustment Wrench for VW Clutch Wingnuts
Vehicle Fitment and Compatibility
The EMPI 7059 Clutch Adjustment Wrench is designed for use on all air-cooled Volkswagen models equipped with a manual transmission and the standard wing-nut style clutch cable adjuster. This includes the VW Beetle, Karmann Ghia, Type 2 Bus, Type 3, and Type 181 Thing. It is also a must-have tool for Dune Buggies, Sand Rails, and Baja Bugs using Volkswagen-based transaxles.
Pro Tech Tips for Clutch Adjustment
Clean and Lubricate the Cable Threads: Before using the adjustment wrench, use a wire brush to clean the exposed threads on the end of the clutch cable. Apply a small amount of penetrating oil or anti-seize. This ensures the wingnut turns smoothly and prevents the cable from twisting or snapping under the extra leverage provided by the tool.
Maximize Grip with the Four-Point Design: Standard pliers only contact two sides of the wingnut, which often leads to slipping or rounding. When using this specialized wrench, ensure all four gripping areas are fully seated over the "wings." This distributes the force evenly, making it significantly easier to turn even if the wingnut is tight or covered in road grime.
Verify Proper Pedal Free-Play: After making adjustments with the tool, always verify the free-play at the clutch pedal. You should generally have about 1/2" to 3/4" (10mm to 20mm) of movement before you feel the clutch begin to engage. Proper adjustment ensures the throw-out bearing is not constantly riding against the pressure plate, which extends the life of your entire clutch system.
