Clutch pressureplate dragging
Anyone ever have this happen?
Engine was removed + reinstalled. The slave was rebuilt, pressure bled. (And has been redone 6-7 times, no air.) You can shift the car + it feels perfectly normal when it is shut off. When the car is started, clutch feels fine, but it will not go in to gear.
We are assuming its in the adjustment or something as there are no leaks.
Wonder what failed...

The only thing that I can think of is that the clutch may have been re-installed backwards. When I did my clutch job, I found it is very easy to install the clutch the wrong way as both sides looks almost exactly the same. That would cause the car to not shift into any gear while running.

Clutch was never removed from the flywheel (nor the flywheel from the engine).
Turns out when the engine was degreased (and it was bad....) the pressure plate, clutch disc, and flywheel all surface rusted together. Popped it in first, had my friends push, and turn the key- lit right off a broke free. Drives great now. haha.
