manual trans hard to shift 850 1995

posted by  someone claiming to be dwight on  Mon Apr 16 23:01 CST 2012 [RELATED]

I have a 1995 850 manual trans with 164K. Shifting into any gear with the engine running but the car not moving is very difficult. As I try to shift into a gear with the car stationary the car moves slightly forward or back(depending in the direction of the gear) before I let out the clutch. Shifting into any gear with the engine off is very easy. I've checked the linkage and cannot see a problem. The clutch pedal travel feels very normal and the movement of the slave cylinder linkage looks adequate. Thanks in advance for any ideas.
