That's good news, jyobeb .

Is that the thing that looks like a motor starter behind the clutch pedal? I've always wondered what that was there for - looks a bit like the foot-operated dim-dip switch we had on the old Ambys.

It is my humble opinion that quotes should not be misquoted.

When sitting facing the engine (there is no other way huh, ) the switch is in front of the pedal. It is a normally open (NO) switch.

Okay then its not the one that I was talking about - I still wonder what that is for. Check your footwell and see if you can figure out what purpose that switch serves.

@ Murugan - that wasnt a quote, which is why the author is not mentioned. A quote has to be exact to the last detail. Now lets get back to the topic.

@Steer- The thingy you mentioned seems to be a stopper.

sir, its just a guess but i think its a protection switch which allow to switch in 4L only when clutch is pressed but again its just a guess.
