I had a similar problem not long ago. The part of the transmission shaft
that goes into the fly wheel froze to the flywheel and was effectively
rendering the clutch useless. My mechanic dropped the transmission lubed
the shaft and flywheel and all fixed. The problem is that there seems to
have been a felt with grease that was not installed when they replaced the
clutch and the lubrication dried up.
Cheers

Subject: Not able to engage any gear
Looking for some wisdom.
My 91 stock manual, I can not get it to engage in any gear while to motor is
running. If I start it with the clutch to the floor and in 1st it acts like
its engage (wants to jump forward).
I have check the master and slave clutch cylinders and they are not leaking
and seem to move when the clutch is pushed down. Seems that with the motor
running makes it not want to go into any gears and the motor off goes easily
into all the gears? What is different when running or not?
Thanks for your help.
