My clutch pedal is right down at the floor, pulling up on the pedal does not seem to help. Any suggestions anyone?

Clutch still engages and disengages okay, just the pedal height is the problem?

I'm thinking he has some issues that a simple firewall adjuster isn't going to sure....

As stated by Dan earlier the Fiore is a good product. I currently run a UPR adjuster and quad myself and have no complaints. I know you are on a tight budget, but a firewall adjuster is a relatively cheap mod. The UPR setup is $40.

Check to see if you have a triple hook quadrant or an adjustable cable. You could be severly out of adjustment.

Killy this is a common issue.. you have two choices to fix this..

1. buy a aftermarket quad and a NEW FORD cable. or

2. follow these instructions to manually adjust the stock quad.

There is a TSB out there for this problem. I do not know if they added your year mustang to the TSb list yet but they should make it for all of them.

what happens is the crappy stock quadarant looses it's ability to self adjust properly and the cable is too loose.
