Iirc they are the same. I cant speak for the yolk as I dont play with autos but I would imagine its the same too.

Vid of a 5th gear burnout or it didnt happen

Sure it drives fine with the auto harness but do your reverse lights work?

Swap the 5 speed harness (just the transmission harness) in there and it makes things easier.

What would cause this?
Car drove fine for about 3 miles when it started to warm up the clutch pedal got real heavy and it was like I wasn't pushing it all the way in and it wouldn't let me into gears. When I came to a stop in neutral and tried to put it in first and it wouldn't let me but when I was pushing the handle into first the car would roll forward.

Either the cable is stretched or you have a bad pressure plate.

Try adjusting the pedal. Put your foot under the Pedal and pull up. If it clicks then it adjusted. Try driving and see if itâ€™s better. But Iâ€™d say your in for either a new cable or pressure plate.

First thing, adjustable cables are garbage. Ask me how I know.

Second thing, make sure you have it adjusted correctly. If not, then it could cause problems.

If no change then go ahead and order a new pressure plate or complete clutch kit. Make sure you get a motorcraft throwout bearing if you do the whole kit. Others wonâ€™t last.

How do I make sure it's adjusted correctly? I think I did it right but I'd like to find out if I'm wrong.

Stock982v · Nov 6, 2017

And I'll throw the OEM one back on and see if that helps.

With the OEM cable, make sure it slides through the sleeve easily. This can make a huge difference.

When this happened to me, it was my clutch fork deciding it no longer wanted to hang out in the trans anymore. It dropped, but I had the same symptoms as you.

Had to pull the trans to fix it.

I did this swap on my 98. I was daily driving my car at the time, 75 miles one way. When I did the swap, the o/d light flashes and the check engine light comes on. The car will drive though. Youâ€™ll need a tune to correct the lights.

Passive anti theft will give you fits. Car probably wonâ€™t crank without a tune.
