hello im new to this so bare wit me, i got a 1989 mustang gt 5.0 and wen i try to push down the clutch it drops to the floor and it doesnt engage, any idea what this could be, thanxxx

sounds like your clutch cable snapped, get a new one, might be a good idea to get a new quadrant too

check either end of the cable for breakage

yea, its weird it dnt seem like the cable snapped it real stiff wen i go to push it down then it just snaps and drops to the floor and then it clicks as i slowly bring it back up, is there some kind of mechanism borken or something, thanxxx

the clicking you hear under the dash is the self adjusting mechanism and most likely the stiffness it a result of a frayed cable catching on the nylon sheath contained with in the cable that surrounds the cable and acts as a channel / guide for it... most likely a cable issue. but inspect it first
