Hi 1danikH,

If the slave cylinder piston is stuck, the clutch would be engaged if the fork is not allowed to return. It is similar to having the clutch pedal pressed when the hydraulic system is working correctly. You would have to remove the piston to allow the clutch release bearing fork to return to disengage the clutch.

The transmission has to be removed to replace the clutch fork as it is looped over the clutch shaft.

Remember to check and if necessary, replace the bigot as it could get worn unevenly. Lubrication is of utmost importance.
