Hey there,
	Maybe I didn't make myself clear.  The problem is, when the
motor is OFF I do not have to press the clutch pedal to switch gears.
When the motor is off, I can easily move the transmition into whatever
gear I want without pressing the clutch pedal.  Whith the motor
running, you need to press the clutch pedal down to switch gears.

So yeah, I am going to replace the clutch cable and see if that fixes
the problem.  I'll report back with whatever I find, hopefully with a
"It's Fixed!"

take care,
	brandy
