Hi there i have a question. first some back round, a couple of weeks ago my clutch pedal started to pulsate when pressed down to the floor, i figured it was my throwout bearing. then a couple of days ago the pulsation stopped for a few minutes then came back. i try to shift as little as possible waiting for my clutch to get here. now today driving the pulsation went away and did not happen at all, it felt wierd like the calm before the storm, i got home and the car has been parked since. the car has 158K the last clutch put in this car was at 62K. I have all recipts so that 96K between clutches is right. my q's is there anything else that would cause this problem. the clutch is getting changed out anyway. I was more or less just inquiring if anyone else came across this or has any input thanks.

You are describing what it's like to get 101% of the reliable miles out of a clutch set. My prediction is 1/4 of the fingers are broken off and the TOB has lost at least it's seal.
