Was taking out the engine and gearbox of a 931 I have when we found the pin through the clutch/bell housing solid and will not budge. Put screw in to try and pull etc without any luck,

so anyone any bright ideas on this?

You're talking about the shaft for the release bearing fork? There is a 'set-screw' on the backside that holds it in place; did you loosen that? There is a 'window' on the driver side of the housing. Take a screwdriver or something similar and drive out the rod from that end. Shine a light down there first to get an idea of the setup, there is a protruded aluminum (aluminium) 'stop' for the shaft when inserting it.

A Grenadier your a genius !! Well more a genius than my brother although to be fair I did forget the manual but he has had enough experience of these cars and others to know that - guess so should I but I believed him when he said it just pushed in and nothing else !!

Just saves a clutch that would otherwise have been destined for the skip !!
