So I go out this morning and suddenly the clutch won't disengage. My NH/Ford 1715 seems to suddenly have this issue.
Is something set wrong to do this or is the clutch frozen to the flywheel?

Thanks
Vic

Your clutch could be stuck to the flywheel from condensation forming.
This is a common problem and you can prevent this from happening if you place a block of wood between the clutch pedal arm and the underside of the step, this keeps the parts separated when not in use.
There is a hole in the bottom of the bellhousing that has a cotter pin in it that is called a "jiggle drain" and it should be kept clean, this prevents water from collecting inside the bellhousing.

Search for "stuck clutch" in Parts and Repairs to dislodge the disc if that's the problem. How long did it sit before it stuck?
