Which transmission is in the BN3. If you put a later clutch cover in a 3 spe=
ed trans. The cover will hit the bell housing, only allowing the engine to m=
ove a little turn. Same problem on the early BN4 transmission. There is a ca=
sting inside the housing that if you installed the later 3000 style clutch c=
over. It will hit and cause the problem you are explaining.=20
