Transmission problem
2003 Ford Ranger 6 cyl Two Wheel Drive Manual

My Ranger has 93,000 miles on it with the original clutch. It is hard to shift into 1st gear and also reverse when sitting in neutral. Is my clutch cable loose or is the clutch starting to go bad? Could it be the timing belt? Sometimes, it shifts easily, other times it is very difficult. It is a constant problem, has been for the past 10,000 miles.
