I would start by checking the clutch reservoir level. If it is OK then try flushing the whole clutch hyd. system if that does not fix it. Your clutch might be the problem.

How do you add clutch cylinder fluid to 1998 Ford Mustang GT 46 liter v 8?

A 1998 Ford Mustang has a CABLE OPERATED CLUTCH , so there is no reservoir like a hydraulic operated clutch * if you want to adjust the clutch ( every 5,000 to 6,000 miles recommended ) Without the engine running , put your transmission in 1st gear Put your foot under the clutch pedal and GENTLY pull the pedal up all the way until it stops SLOWLY push the clutch pedal down all the way , if your clutch needed adjusting you should hear a click


What would cause the clutch to press to the ground and the car will not go into gear without extreme force?

check your clutch fluid...i had the same problem on my s-10. if your clutch fluid is low fill it up with either clutch fluid or break fluid works too. make sure that your master cylinder isn't leaking too, this could be the cause of low clutch fluid. (you should check that every six months)New Answer HeadlineThe slave cylinder needs replacing. This is located under the vehicle, possibly on passenger side as long as it is an external one however on some truck models it will be located inside the front of the transmission thus meaning transmission must be dropped to get to it This is what makes your clutch work very similar to the breaking system beings how at times if had a leak you would need to top off the fluid level(brake fluid) and then bleed the clutch to remove air from line and to bring pedal pressure back up that will in turn allow you to shift gears the slave cylinder will have a bleed nipple on it just like your brake lines do AnswerIt depends on the car. If your clutch is hydraulic--not all of them are, kids--you've either got a low (well, no) fluid condition, a bad master cylinder, a bad clutch cylinder or a leak somewhere between the two cylinders.If it's a cable-operated clutch, the cable needs adjusting really bad.
