slippage
Damn! I should have read the label more carefully. I've been running Rotella 15w40 with no problem. Changed the oil today, thinking I was buying the same stuff. Turns out I bought Rotella 10w30. Took it for a spin, and the clutch slips a little under hard acceleration. There went 15 bucks for nothin!https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B9zH8w8Civs8ejBJWjdvYi1LNTg&resourcekey=0-hlJp0Yc4K_VN9g7Jyy4KQg&authuser=fussbucket_1%40msn.com&usp=drive_fs

Maybe I just got a little more "confident" with the throttle today. I'll check my cable adjustments as that is something I haven't even looked at yet.https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B9zH8w8Civs8ejBJWjdvYi1LNTg&resourcekey=0-hlJp0Yc4K_VN9g7Jyy4KQg&authuser=fussbucket_1%40msn.com&usp=drive_fs

not slipping
Seems like a cable adjustment did the trick. PO had no play in the cable at all and the lever was hanging up a bit against the perch. I think it was the hanging up that was causing the majority of the problem.https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B9zH8w8Civs8ejBJWjdvYi1LNTg&resourcekey=0-hlJp0Yc4K_VN9g7Jyy4KQg&authuser=fussbucket_1%40msn.com&usp=drive_fs
