Clutch release arm and clutch plate was the wrong way.

[DeeTurbo]

Stamped on the pedal a few times?

Tired it loads and then I put a spacer between the arm and the cable so the cables pulled out a bit more but no joy.

I spoke with my dad about it and he thinks I have put the plate in the wrong way, biggest school boy error ever!

Basically he said to try putting it in gear with a piece of wood pushing down on the clutch pedal then push the car, if it rolls without the engine stopping it try starting the car with it in gear and have your foot on the clutch. If it starts and you can hear the clutch dragging then it's the plate in the wrong way.

You must have put it on right, I put mine in backwards first time but the clutch cover wouldn't fit so it will only go one way!

Can you get all the gears with the engine off? If not possibly missed a linkage.

Really?

I can get all gears fine with the engine off. When I got the box on and went to check if the release bearing was ok I tried the gears and I found the the bit that locates on that large ball had fallen of it.

Can anyone tell from the pic's if the plate is in wrong?

Tom, what clutch did you fit?
