These things always happen when you least need them too lol If it is farked I may as well get it built properly at kewish with a better input shaft, extra clutch pack and kevlar bands. Its only when im,rightmup it so it should be fine for the missus to putt to work in for a while... Edited 16/04/12 11:09 PM by Rhino1980 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But as Mitch said the oil sure makes a big difference, especially the filter. once that filter blocks up with clutch fiber you loose a heap of punch and get a very slow sluggish shift change. oh and yes, sh*t only happens when you least expect or need it the main thing is to keep on rollin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I get it flushed, replaced and see if it fixes it. If notmthen I have no choice but it wont be happening tomorrow. Unfortunately it will delay my return to the track. Just gotta roll with the punches I guess. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
