hope someone on here can help me! clutch question

shawnastang96 · June 25th, 2008, 06:44 PM

I have a 96 GT. 4.6 stick shift, I have to force it in gear. when its cold it works fine then after about 15 minutes. it wont go in gear anymore unless I jam it in. when I turn it off and push the clutch in and restart it the car jumps forward like the clutch pedal isnt pushed in all the way. i had the ford dealer put a clutch in it 2 months ago. before this clutch, there was an aftermarket in it, I think, cause the clutch pedal was so hard to push in, I couldnt hold it in for long. could this problem have something to do with the clutch fork. I dont know anything about a clutch(my first one). I know its the cable kind of clutch. please help, its my only car to drive and I have moved out in the boone docks oh oklahoma. thanks guys

try adjusting it. its not that hard, all u have to do is pull up on the clutch pedal and it adjusts its self.

Sounds like you need you syncronizers to be replaced. its about a 700$ job

check the cable. also check the stops on the shifter if it's aftermarket. If it was me ,I'd take it back to the ford dealer and tell them they fucked it up and need to fix it or you're gonna woop someones ass!!!!
