scuffing clutches

[chef1366]

I use steel wool in a circular motion.
If you still get slippage the clutch fibers were contaminated and need to be replaced.
Try Dan's idea and get some EBC clutch springs. They are 10% stronger than stock.

Now, I'm not going to do something foolish and come right out and say that the product doesn't exist,
but I have not yet seen a 10w-40 with they dreaded "Energy Conserving" designation.

.

Oh you so did not!!!!

I am going to have to take a picture of my 10W-40 now, put it on the photobucket account so I can post it on here to show you there is some energy conserving 10w-40 floating around out there. This may take up to a week as I have bigger fish to fry.

Would that be the wax on wax off motion?

Ahhhh, me doesn't want to be hearing about anyone waxin off.

Thanks out to everybody, as usual. I'll bust it open again just after I get the stainless screws (because I don't know if the originals can take another round).

One last question: What would contaminate the fiber disks? Oil with additives, or something as simple as sitting in a barn for 14 years? Or won't it matter, as I'll find out anyway?

If it sat in a barn for fourteen years just ride it and the clutch will work its way out.
