Yes . The pivit shaft moves, and when I can go down hill and start the engine, I can bring the rpm,s up to shift.
When I get to 3rd, thru 5th gear I can slip the clutch when the pedal is to the floor and I try a hard acceleration.
I have put a long bar on the pivot ball end, and It still wont disengage

hi again

This sounds like the pressure plate has lost it's fingers or possibley the throw out bearing is gone

If the arm moves then there is problem with the pressure plate
