full explanation is this.
First off, with the car off, you can shift all gears no problem.


I got it home and at the time it wouldn't shift. The pedal was all the way to the floor as though the cable had snapped, but it hadn't.

I adjusted the cable as much as I could to get some pedal and drove it. Then you could shift while it was moving, sort of...then the problem changed to unable to move. So it just gradually moved less and less until it got to the point (this was driving it around the block), that the clutch wouldn't grab. So now it's in a situation I could best describe as the clutch pedal is all the way to the floor. So you can shift the gears but releasing the pedal doesn't change anything. Even though it comes up halfway, the car acts like it's still all the way in and won't drive.

so to sum up: it acts as though the pedal is all the way down and it won't engage the gear. BEFORE though, it was the opposite...before I 'adjusted it' to see if that was the problem. So it changed 180 degrees.
Help?
