So i get in my car this morning and go to take off but it did not want to go into any gears which is weird cause it was fine the other day and all i have done since is roll it outside to give it wash. Seems to shift fine when the engine is off but when the engine is on it doesnt want know about it, Cant start it in gear with the clutch in either as it acts as thouugh the clutch is not in so i have know idea, anyone got any clues
91 swb vit by the way
Cheers Logan.

so under the car you can see the fork move as someone depresses the pedal?

Possibly the clutch plate has "frozen" to the flywheel. If the clutch feels like it is working then find some free space, start the vehicle in gear with the clutch in and try driving using throttle and jabbing the brake whilst driving with the clutch depressed, use your right heel on the brake.
