I just picked up a 93 Mustang 5.0 LX with 95k on it about 3 weeks ago and the other day the clutch completely went out. So I had it taken to a tranny shop and I had a new clutch put in with pilot and throw out bearings. Now when you completely left of the clutch at idle, there is a squealing noise that goes away when you start to engage the clutch. The mechanic claims that he did nothing wrong when installing it and I was wondering if anyone could give me their opinion or if you have seen this before???? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
Anthony

The throwout bearing is suspect. The cheap parts store replacements are a source of trouble. The clutch cable and throwout bearing are two places that should not use anything but genuine Ford parts.

check proper clutch adjustment too, if it's a noise that goes away with slight clutch pedal pressure, than you simply need to tighten your clutch adj, read my tech article in my sig.
