Also causing this problem is the connection/bushing under the dash. Check this out for wear. Its a common problem.

The bushing is on the clutch linkage under the dash and above the brake peddle . The bushing is made of plastic ( white or black ) and is easy to replace.... If you want to replace the Ford part the parts guy at your Ford dealer will know what you are talking about . but it will wear out again soon and are now $10 from Ford ( up from $3 ! ) . The hiem jiont is worth the money and time to put in .
