Clutch Lever Release 65 Falcon
Hi, hope I’m not asking an inappropriate question on this forum. Sorry if so. The clutch lever release on my 65 Falcon seams to have come loose. Sorry it is a 6 cylinder 200 ci. Can I reattach without dropping the trany and or bell housing? Thanks I’m not skilled enough to be called a backyard mechanic.

Re: Clutch Lever Release 65 Falcon
Attached is a brief diagram of the clutch release assy. The release lever (7515) is held in the correct position with spring (7562) secured to bracket (7522).
You will most likely have to remove the trans to diagnose and repair.

Re: Clutch Lever Release 65 Falcon
Occasionally the rivets that hold the clutch lever pivot (7522) break off. We used to replace the rivets with a tapered head screw that you could bolt in. Again, you'll have to pull the trans.

Re: Clutch Lever Release 65 Falcon
It's hard to get in the bell housing unless it's off the engine.

Measure needed length. You want the fastener end towards the flywheel. Make sure it is not too long as to interfere with the lever hold-down spring. Also make sure the cap screw head will not interfere with the trans face when re-installing
