Default Clutch problem

Hi there,

Got a problem with the clutch on my curvy, and as a pretty non-tech kind of guy I as wondering if anyone knw what was going on.

It's become very difficult to get into gear (sometimes it just won't go), and when I can evetually get it into neutral it creeps forward.
I've used the barrel adjuster at the lever to pull the cable in a bit more, but as it's not a new cable I don't think it should be stretching.

Is it about to snap?

Try oiling the cable, cleaning and greasing the worm drive and the push rod behind the worm drive, then adjust it as per the manual

EDIT: Be careful with the bearings in the worm drive cause they fall out if they're not grease in, check you got them all when you put it back togeather
