the car wont move (5speed)
I assumed clutch pedal free play is at spec... for sure after new cable.
with the lower cable disconnected
i move that bell lever by hand, it has huge distances of travel there.
the throw out bearing slides on the transmission snout, sleeve for same,
sometimes i can feel this and find its jamming.... up.
if the gear box really is in , gear, for sure, no guessing,.
then the clutch is stuck disengaged.
gross clutch slip is a bad clutch, disc hit rivets, or disintegrated, pressure plate, total failure, or throw out bearing stuck on its sleeve , or disc splines jammped on spline of pilot shaft. (usually and oil soaked clutch binds up cranking, but at fast RPM hard loads can slip)
but the shift'er needs to be checked carefully.
that plastic part loves to fail.. and some are seen as totally gone , now just dust, in the muck there.
the lever when new, has no play at all in gear.
well just the most tiny amount, new.
if not, true now, that plastic part IS BAD.
