I have read a few threads that are somewhat related, and did a search, but I still am not sure what is causing my problem.
A few weeks ago, I was driving home and lost pedal feel at the top of the pedal when you first start to push the pedal in; there is about an inch of play. Whenever cruising or at a light, I can feel the pedal vibrate, sometimes slightly and sometimes violently. Whenever at a light, I can also hear chatter as it is vibrating. If I pull up on the pedal with my foot, usually the vibration will stop. This in a way answers my question for myself, but I am still not sure. Also, the problem is intermittent because I will gain the pedal feel back and it will feel fine if I drive normal, but if I get on it and push/release the pedal quickly, then I will usually lose pedal feel again. I tried adjusting the cable, but it does not solve the problem.
I'm pretty positive its probably a combination of a defective quadrant and stretched cable, but I was told by a retired ford tech that it could be that when I replaced my clutch (less than 5k miles ago), that it could be that the pressure plate is not aligned/centered perfectly and that is causing my vibration. He went into a little more detail, but I do not remember it all.
Any input would be very helpful, because its no fun feeling like I cant have fun with the stang because if I do, I'll lose my pedal feel. It would also be nice just to fix the issue.
