i just got this 91 mustang gt. originally it was an automatic car but sometime before i purchased it someone made it a stick shift. i don't know what they were thinking but the put a 4 speed in it instead of a 5 speed. i have a problem with it though because the car wont shift when you push in the clutch and the car is on. But while its off you can put it in any gear. i checked the clutch and its fine, so is the fly wheel and the tranny is to. my only guess is that the clutch cable maybe incorrect or the pressure plate is bad.


any guess what it is?

 

TOB, clutch fork, or cable.

 

did it work when u bought it...now it doesnt ??

did you adjust the cable ?

can you put in 1st then start it and at least drive in 1st ? to see when it engages/disengages ?? when u push the pedal in ?

 

For some reason, it is not fully releasing the clutch. Obviously for one of the reasons mentioned above.

 

it did the same when i first got it. and yeah it will start in 1st but then i have to shift without using the clutch and i can get into all the gears. I ve only driven it around the block though because i hope its not the trans.

 

ok...have you adjusted the cable at all ?

even the stocker will adjust...pull out on the pedal and then press with your foot. do it a few times

 

i checked the cable and it works because it pulls the fork back pretty good so i dont know what it could be

 

UPDATE I got a steeda cable adjuster kit that includes the cable,firewall adjuster, and pedal adjuster and what do you know it freakin works now.
