Would have thought that a Sierra 1.8 cvh clutch would fit ? Probably worth changing the whole clutch if it's been causing problems

Might be worth checking your local motor factors .they should have details of clutch fitments ie diameter, spline and size etc. Suprised your clutch
refurbs can't give you the correct information. Only ever fitted one reconditioned clutch, had to change it as it was faulty .

1/4"where can get an odd gear but push it in any further nothing!

Silly question, the clutch is adjusted correctly ?you need about 3mm max free play at the clutch operating lever
