Why does a cable need to be pressurized?

does it have a slave cylinder or something that needs to be bled?

Erm.. it's a clutch cable.. it's CABLE operated.. it's not a hydraulic
clutch. explain the problem you're having.

depressing the clutch pedal doesnt disengage the clutch itself. it turns
over but just grinds. and im not able to push start it. when its in gear
and your foots on the clutch its supposed roll so you can jump start it.

Is there any pedal effort? Does it require ANY effort to depress the
clutch pedal? Do you have any aftermarket parts on it (such as Steeda
adjustable clutch cable, Steeda firewall adjuster, Steeda double-hook
quadrant, anything??)

yeah there is pedal effort and no i dont have any aftermarket clutch parts.
i tried to tow it tonight, so i tried to tow it while it was in gear. when
it started rolling it started up but when i tried to pull it out of gear
it wouldnt move until i turned it off. it seems like the cable wont
disengage the clutch.
