Could also be the hub is hanging up on the splines.  Kind of weird I grant
you, but I had that happen on my CRX.  Not so bad it wouldn't release
though.  Just dragged.  Happened when my former wife was trying to drive it
(at my urging) so I couldn't say much. :-/

card carrying list old-fart, I wouldn't ever say anything. :-)

Yep.

Or, a key value clutch kit is (or at least was) $99 or so from Courtesy.
