yeh i had this happen to me, cept i wuz rough housing mine and stomped the clutch n switched gears and bam, no more pressure in clutch. Ofcourse i was ignorant to mechanic parts and ended up payin 600 bucks for an entire new clutch from some expensive ass shop that ofcourse tells you "your entire clutch is bad"

I wish i ATLEAST would have bought a King Cobra or some type of upgraded clutch to be installed instead of a new OEM, but hey u live and you learn. now i'll just torture this clutch untill i throw in a king clutch.

what about your adjustable quadrant.. it is just plastic and sometimes they will strip and stop working

 

[ndfrspd]

can you adjust your stock clutch cable at the firewall or no?

 

[97stanggt]

stock cable is un adjustable....

you can adjust your stock cable there is a trick to it.. it is not easy to explain though... I will try to think about how I would word it out and I will post the answer...... It is quite easy to do once you know how though. Also I have heard from a few speed shops that you do not want to use an adjustable cable over the stock.. just becasue you are constantly adjusting them
