Exactly what happened to mine - thrust washer dropped out
Spent days bleeding the clutch master cylinder and slave cylinder
Trying to work out how to extend the push rod in the slave cylinder to
get it to work
Drained the engine oil and the magnetic sump plug had the trust washer
attached to it
Dropped the sump looked at the damage and cried!
Cost for forcing it in gear and driving it - ie wrecking the engine
block = $2000 engine rebuild!
Regards
Phil
