I had the same question about my cable clutch setup and was informed here on CC that a little pressure on the fingers by the throwout bearing was normal and has been since the mid 80's on fords. I confirmed this with a mechanic at the local Ford dealer. I am from the old school and I have never believed that was the correct way to do it. I guess the new technology in throwout bearings is a lot better now. The mechanic at the dealer said that around 12 lbs of pressure is correct.
