Hi, have an old ford courier, did a burnout in my paddock, as I drove off the car didn’t go anywhere, as if I had the handbrake on, all gears seem to be the same, it is hard to put into any gear

Car is hard to push in nutreul and isn’t smooth, as if the wheels were square (it roll slightly and then get stuck)

Any help would be much appreciated thankyou

Well, you burnt out the friction material on the clutch disc with the burnout but you hydraulic system on your clutch has also failed. Depending on the age of your Courier, it might not be worth fixing.
