Burgs, I have mine locked to prevent accidental shifting when in storage.

Anyway, may I suggest:

1. disconnect all the linkage to the fork. does the fork move freely before it engages to TO bearing?

2. Using a small but suitable prybar, engage the fork to the TO Bearing and see if you can move the fingers. If you go too far, the TO will lock in the engaged position and will NOT release.

3. connect the slave and rod, but with no pressure on the TO bearing.

4. While under the car, ask someone to press the clutch pedal. Make sure it moves at least 3/4 inch. If the fork goes too far, the TO will lock in the engaged position and will NOT release.

5. adjust the rod to allow the fork to have about 1/16 ich to 1/8 inch play before engaging the fingers of the pressure plate.

6. put the tranmission in neutral with the rear of the car in the air. turn both wheels in the same direction ( like you on one wheel and yoru wife on the other ).

7. Put the transmission using the clutch into 1st and do the same thing.

If you make it all the way through, the clutch should be about adjusted and the trans should stop the wheels from turning. If you do not have the slave adjusted correctly and you pressed the TO too far into the Pressure plate, it will stick and NOT release. Been there, done that.

Hope this helps.
