Default Clutch wont disengauge...

My clutch wont disengauge, i put a new flywheel on, new clutch, throwout bearing, all that good stuff......i put the tranny back on and i aligned everything before so its all good, i adjusted the clutch cable so it grabs when u push the pedal down, it just wont move the car, the shift linkage works because it throws the reverse lights on...im pretty puzzled on what it might be but i really need some help asap....


thanks..

you can put it in any gear without the car stalling with the clutch out?
thats not even close to right. adjust it so that the clutch disk begins to grab when the pedal is two inches from the floor

u gotta make sure everything is aligned properly, i know u said it was, but try to have the same distance around the "alignment tool" .... the tool doesn't align everything , it just helps to put the clutch on... b/4 u bolt down the whole assembly run ur finger around the alignment tool making sure that there is equal distance between the tool & the clutch....
1. if u try to start the car in neutral can u?
2. can u start the car in 1st w/ the clutch down?
3. can u start the car in 1st w/o the clutch?
