Hello I replaced the rubber and bronze bushes,on the clutch shaft and soaked the partly siezed pedal,in WD40 The pedal is now free and the clutch works,I think the redal mist have seized in the down positin,stopping the clutch engaging . :)

Hi,
Do you mean 'pedal must have seized in the down position' ??
Best wishes,

Is the return spring in place? Does the lever protruding from the gearbox move back and forth? Are you sure the problem is in the clutch? Not a broken half-shaft ?? Is the prop shaft turning - and the speedo showing a reading ??
