Where are you located?

I know it may be a stupid question and I did search. Do you know if this would fit a BRM manifold?

Update if this ever get searched with similar symptoms. Turns out it was in fact the pressure plate.

Thanks guys, ordering a pressure plate from Dave at south bend, who's been great btw. Should arrive sometime over the holidays. I'll update when I get it installed.

Would the broken pivot retaining spring cause this to happen? I feel like the arm and bearing not having that pivot point would be enough to cause a no release situation. Anyone else agree?

The picture of the pressure plate above shows the fingers bent a little and out of place. Pulled the plate off and layed on a straight edge and they are all proper and true. Maybe something is putting pressure on it from behind the wrong way in one spot? I've been in contact with south bend now...

Thanks guys. There's currently half a foot of snow on the hood in front of the house. I'll have to let it dry a little and try and push start it to get her in the garage before looking. I'll update with what I find when I get there though.

Hey guys, been a loooong time. I guess it's not a bad thing considering the car has been so bullet proof the last couple of years. Today I was driving on the highway, shifted from 4th to 5th like any other time, as I was letting the pedal go I felt a sort of ping through the pedal, I knew right...

Awww man, my old stomping grounds. I'd be interested in just the timing belt tools as I have the rest already.
