Since Ive bought my car Ive had a really still clutch pedal. I realized that the clutch cable was resting on the headers and the heat caused the cable plastic to melt. Well I went and installed a new ford OEM cable. I thought I had it adjusted good and everything. Drove for two days with no problems. Today as im driving around I notice that as im trying to shift gears I almost have to pull the shifter with all my might to get it to go into gear. So I make a u-turn and try to go home. As im nearing my place at a stop light I push in the clutch pedal and hear a loud pop. After the pop I cant get the car into gear. It doesnt look like the cable is broken or anything. Im wondering if it could be the clutch qudrant? Hopefully I didnt break any metal or anything.<br /><br />Everything I have now is stock. The clutch however is a spec. <br /> </font> </td></tr> <tr bgcolor="#f7f7f7"> <td valign="top" width="18%"> <font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial"> <b>Blind</b> <br /><small>Member # 3052</small> </font></td> <td width="82%"> <font size="1" face="Verdana, Arial"> <img src="https://californiafords.com/ubb/posticon.gif" border="0" alt=" - " /> posted <script language="JavaScript1.3" type="text/javascript"> document.writeln(timestamp(new Date(2006,11,29,10,14,0), dfrm, tfrm, 0, 0, 0, 0)); </script><hr /> </font> <font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial"> the stock clutch quadrent is plastic, with a stiff pedal you may have weakened it. <br /> </font> </td></tr> <tr bgcolor="#dedfdf"> <td valign="top" width="18%"> <font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial"> <b>fiftee1989</b> <br /><small>Member # 6128</small> </font></td> <td width="82%"> <font size="1" face="Verdana, Arial"> <img src="https://californiafords.com/ubb/posticon.gif" border="0" alt=" - " /> posted <script language="JavaScript1.3" type="text/javascript"> document.writeln(timestamp(new Date(2006,11,29,10,41,0), dfrm, tfrm, 0, 0, 0, 0)); </script><hr /> </font> <font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial"> soounds like the quadrant, mine did the same thing a couple of months ago <br /> </font> </td></tr> <tr bgcolor="#f7f7f7"> <td valign="top" width="18%"> <font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial"> <b>adower</b> <br /><small>Member # 5955</small> </font></td> <td width="82%"> <font size="1" face="Verdana, Arial"> <img src="https://californiafords.com/ubb/posticon.gif" border="0" alt=" - " /> posted <script language="JavaScript1.3" type="text/javascript"> document.writeln(timestamp(new Date(2006,11,29,11,26,0), dfrm, tfrm, 0, 0, 0, 0)); </script><hr /> </font> <font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial"> I hope I didnt break any metal around the quadrant.
