I have a problem with my 2002 freestyle ford fiesta (99-02) model, I'm unable to change into gear when the engine is on, the clutch seems as normal as it was when it was working, but It just wont let me change into any gear until I pump the clutch a few times. When I do eventually get the gear in any gear, it makes a very weird noise. When the engine is off, I can put it into any of the gear without a problem. Do you have any suggestions as to what's happening or how to solve it? Thank you

Sounds like hydraulics problem and/or pressure plate failure. try bleeding/checking for leaks worn parts in clutch pedal system.
