Mike,

The fact that you can feel the brakes dragging the engine, while at a
full stop with the clutch in, suggests your clutch is dragging. Most
likely cause is excess play in the linkage. What kind of linkage does a
M****t use anyway, hydraulic or rods'n'cables? If it's mechanical, there
might be an adjuster somewhere.

PO most likely did install a new clutch, as dragging wll increase with
the thicker, new clutch disc than a thin worn out old one.
