Yes, and it was still hard to shift gears.

I don't know if this helps you, but it got me home.
Before I changed from the zf gear box to an auto, I had no start while out
shopping. Would not turn over engine, Set park brake, car in neutral,
key to on position took a jumper wire and connected it to power then
touch to the purple wire direct to starter.
( car in neutral! when you do this )
Got car car started and drove home. As it turned out the
clutch safety switch had an open in the ckt.
my no start was not because of clutch repair. So not sure if this helps.

Agree. But, too if they DID disconnect the ECU, there's the chance to bend one of the pins. But, an OBD-1 scanner would probably(?) pick up on that pretty quick. But, yeah. I can't imagine how changing the clutch hydraulics and hardware would affect anything to do with starting - ordinarily (that is).

I've come to hate taking my cars to anyone except a known GOOD mechanic...and they're darn few, it seems. And, DEALERS (aka parts swappers) especially! Like: when was the last time they worked on a ZR-1??? Was the mechanic even BORN when the car came out???
