Clutch ratchet has given up again after only 2 months! used a cheap pattern part...neva again. Should i get the ford item or could any one tell me where i can get a metal clutch ratchet. I keep hearing about them. Has anyone got one? Where can you get them?

right then just do away with the self adjusting ratchet, ford did a
conversion on the late mk3 fiesta 94-96 that made the adjusting mechanism manual which i have on my fiesta due to the trouble i had with my ap four paddle clutch so you can adjust the pedal to where ever you desire by turning a nob which locks the small toothed arm in position i will post the finis codes later once i find the receipt

It locks the toothed part in place.. so that the pie-piece shaped (don't know the exact english word for it) part will stay in the selected position..

the standard clutch ratchet is self-locking.. and disfunctions every once and a while (-:
