In my 93 gt I recently replaced my cluch, flywheel, cable and quadrant, and put in a rebulit wc t-5. Ever since then ive had issues with the clutch not disengauging and possibly slipping. The check engine light is on and ive had problems hooking up with the code scaner. Im looking for a good shop in the bay area or somone to help me out. Im frustrated and would like to pay mechanic asap to dial it in. Any sugestions?

Did you change the throw out bearing? They go bad in a hurry and can cause the sounds you are describing.

Try Mostly Mustangs in Oakland, at 510-893-2113. I used to work there, and it's a quality shop that has been doing Mustangs for almost 30 years.

Hey Phildog. I was thinking of dropping by there to check on some prices for a few things. How's the labor rate there? I was trying to find some reviews on the internet but couldn't find any. Expensive, fair, low?
