Bear with me...My '02 is my first "stick" since 1969...what is a Clutch Adjustment? Is it the amount of pedal pressure or where the clutch engages and disengages in reference to the pedal position??
I see ads for these new "better" cables...firewall adjustment doo hickeys etc etc......
A short explanation in terms a moron can understand would be appreciated...
And are they feasable for a street car GT, that at times gets pushed, revved and pedaled at red lights....
Thanks...

I think more of the stuff they are advertising is for stronger cables and less play in the clutch pedal tralvel. Some people don't like where the clutch ingages and they sell stuff to make those adjustments. In my opinion, for my own car it has no value to me at this time to change it.
If I understand right all the newer stangs come with clutch pedals that you can adjust by pulling up on the clutch pedal with your foot. This will take up slack that has come because of clutch wear.
