Thanks Jum
Wow, as I feared, I would really need to find a car in a scrap yard and grab a matched set of bits.

I have done it on my 2+2 but i had to modify the pedal to get it to match the other pedals. Somewhere i have details on the Escort Quadrent mods.

I managed to lift the pedal and pull the cable out fully, but cannot get the pawl to engage with the quadrant. Looks like I need to take the pedal box out to investigate further. Wasn’t there a recommendation to replace the Fiesta quadrant with a different one, perhaps Escort. I think there was a specific coloured Ford item, but I can’t remember the details.

Lift the pedal up against it's stop with a bit of wood or a second person (this releases the ratchet) and then pull the clutch cable inner out as far as it will go in the engine bay. Release the pedal and then press it a few times, you should hear the ratchet reset. You can't mix low lift and normal lift clutch parts but since you replaced as a set it should be ok. I remember an issue with clutch ratchet not working correctly if you had too much carpet behind the pedal which meant it couldn't be pressed down far enough for the ratchet to be triggered.

I bit the bullet and took the engine out only to fine the clutch plate wasn’t very worn, but it looks like someone has been riding the clutch as the splines are badly scored by the thrust bearing and some blueing. Not sure it is relevant, but the old clutch was a Motorcraft unit with the friction plate marked ‘Low Lift’ and a white quadrant adjuster fitted. I fitted brand new 3 part Valeo clutch kit hoping this would solve my issues. Wrong! Now the clutch cannot be fully disengaged so I cannot get it into gear. The bite point is about 10mm off the floor. I am using the same clutch cable and the quadrant is untouched. Any ideas please?
