> Reason I ask is cause my GFs' mustang has reacebtly gone into the shop for
what I suspected was a bad ajusted clutch. The thing is that last mont or so
they told her that she needed a clutch the dealer replaced it and also did
an oil change. Once the car came home the clutch felt weird and would
shudder at engament on a steep grade or even on sligth ones.
