Common problem

Usually self inflicted during re-assembly

unfortunately i never found out what the self inflicted bit was. obviously something wasnt quite right

I tried numerous times over 2 days to get it right, with various combinations of clutch parts and even the old clutch back in and it still wouldnt work!

eventually, by luck i beleive, it did work. so i just left it as i didnt fancy another 2 days of poo

good luck

can you be more specific about the clutch pin locking up?
Do you mean that with the cover and lever back on the arm wont pull it?

Did you definatly put the small plates in the right place?
Can you lever the top plate with a screwdriver and it feel springy or is the whole clutch locked up

You need to pull the cover tight with the clutch lever to ensure the pawls locate in the slot in the pin correctly

They can be difficult to select neutral at he best of times, but presumably the engine is not running if theres no oil in it. More often, filling through the clutch side can flood the clutch wit oil and cause it to slip temporarily.
What changed to "get a clutch pedal"?
You should be able to (just) push the engine lever by hand with a rag and certainly with a big pair of pliers and it feel like it's working. Are you getting this?

How do you mean you cat select a gear?
You should be able to do that without the clutch, just rock the car back ann forward slightly?
