I have a 94 GT. When my clutch pedal is out, my car is making more of a ticking sound rather than a squeaking sound. You push the clutch in about half way, and the sound goes away. You look underneath the car and you can see the clutch fork is vibrating I guess. You can put slight pressure on the clutch fork and the sound goes away. Does anybody know what the problem is? I've put a new throwout bearing, steel bearing retainer, and adjustable cable setup...and the problem still exists. The clutch was relatively new when I bought the car. Could it be the clutch fork? The car has a blower, if it's a heavy duty clutch, could it be too much for the stock clutch fork? Help?? Anyone?? Much appreciated. --Sean

Did you notice any wear on the inside of the bellhousing, flywheel, pressure plate, or the backing plate? I haven't heard of the clutch fork needing replaced because of a high performance clutch usually just because of special bellhousing. What throwout bearing did you put in it?

Are you sure you have the TOB oriented in the clutch fork correctly? There is a little clip it fits into .

I put a For Racing TOB in, got it from summit, along with a steel front bearing retainer for trans. Didn't notice anything unusual. Yes, TOB is on the fork correctly. Any other ideas?

I had that happen to me and i replaced the TOB...about 1500 miles later the same thing happened. So i put a new TOB in and it hasnt come back since. Sometime you just get a bum TOB. Sorry man...i know what squeeking is anoying as hell. Oh..you could also adjust some of the clutch cable slack out...that might help
