Ok so today i went to leave and pushed in the clutch felt no different,put it into reveres,when i let off the clutch not even a inch it started going and stalling out finally got out to the road and pushed the clutch to go to 1st gear,and it wouldnt go into any gear i tryed forcing it but it wouldnt go into any of them, tryed putting it back into revers and all it did was grind. I let off the clutch and pushed it back in and it worked fine and drove fine. One time leaving a red light i heard a clunk but that was it. Anyone have and ideas what it could be????

I'm not familiar with these manual transmission on these fords I'll bump for good measure

I'd say synchro problem or gearbox

Sounds like slave cylinder has failed. It's part of the clutch release bearing. This means transmission remomoval. First verify that clutch fluid level is OK.

Well I drove it around tonight for a while and had no problems so idk lol maybe it was a freak thing? Who knows see how it is tomorrow lol.

Keep an eye on the fluid level. If it goes down you have an external leak and this will be ongoing.
