I talked to some old-timers who counseled me to put the rear up on jackstands, put it in gear, start it up, slam on the brakes to stall it, then depress the clutch and it should pop free.If you don't want to take it out in traffic, try this sequence change: put the rear up on jackstands, put it in gear, start it up, > depress the clutch < slam on the brakes to stall it You may need to repeat a few times.
