I copied this from Snowbum’s material, regarding unsticking a stuck clutch; I prefer to try the following things in order shown below; either method...

That is quite a conundrum. I wanted to rescind my suggestion of bumping it with the starter. Thinking about it, I got concerned about damaging the f...
