I finally got it back together! -

I started to drive it, but the pedal is catching really high?

Quick question:

Which way to I need to adjust the cable to make it catch it lower?

I was saying that the pedal engages the clutch really high.

I am assuming that I need to tighten it, so that it engages the clutch lower on the pedal.

Ok well I can finally drive the Mustang again! -

I have a few issues though. I think I need to tighten the cable jsut alittle bit, it seems to loose (easy enough to do). I can also hear a clicking noise when I push in the pedal (maybe a wire is stuck behind it). It also feels like the cable has a rachet feel to it when I push the pedal, is this normal with an adjustable cable and doubl hook quadrant?

My brake lights don't work either - :P I figure I missed a wire to hook up. Does anybody happen to have a picture of what thiers looks like under the dash around the brake pedal?

Thanks for all the help.

the brake light switch has 2 wires, usually the same color, hooked up the a plunger style button that sits right around the top/middle of the pedal assembly.

So that's where those two wires go! -

Thanks! I will try to hook those up tonight, don't need a ticket - :P
