Clutch saftey switch
1991 f150 manual transmission 5.0 engine.
Has anyone found a solution with the clutch safety? I have to use all the strength I have when depressing the clutch to engage the starter. I recently had the clutch and clutch hydraulics replaced and hoped this problem would be better but it is not. My mechanic said there is not much you can do about it, just the nature of this creature. One of Fords better ideas.

Clutch Safety Switch
I had the same problem. The switch is adjustable. The switch has a rod going through the switch, at the adjusted point it completes a circut. The adjustment stop on the back of the switch can be pushed/ click up a few notches until it works properly.
The switch is located near the top of the pedal. It is a white plastic part that has a pivot on the bottom and a rod connected to the pedal arm. The switch has a plug with three wires.
Hope this helps!
