Thanks guys for the replys. If it is in fact the Bowden cable (or whatever it is for that matter) why would it be intermittent? And how does this cable go out of adjustment? Also, is checking/adjusting the Bowden cable at all a DIY job or should I leave this to the pros? I'd say I'm an intermediate DIYer, I did my t-chain. Thanks again!
