Hi guys, just to update on this thread. Yesterday I work on the car. I was going to check with the crank pulley bolt, but because you told me that I was not mistaken and that pushing the clutch, and in neutral, the driveshaft should move...
...I get confidence to hit (with care) the driveshaft from the hole of the torque tube with a screwdriver while somebody pushes the clutch and suddenly it started rolling smooth and without problems. I suppose that beeing so much time the car stopped (3 years from previous owner) the clutch discs must have get stuck someway.
Now it turn without problems when pressing the pedal and using the hand down there. Also I turn it 180 degrees to tighten the sleeve clamp bolt to 80NM as the wsm says.
Also fixed the problem with the transmission. Removed the rear trans cover, empty fluid, bought new drain screws, filled with new redline 75W90, new gasket and closed.
I jump to the next task, I have finished closing the bell housing, mounting the slave cylinder and the starter (you can see my new doubt with starter cables in another thread). Thanks!.
