can you explain the temps and smoke and all that. Sounds like its just outa tune. If its a new clutch i would take the engine off and use some light sand paper on the shoes and clutch bell. Then use a paper towel or rag and wipe off any dust. Then Take it out and try it. If no luck il look at it saturday at berwyn

Sounds to me like a tuning issue. May be a little too Rich, but it's hard to say for sure. Usually, if it is a clutch, The engine will either Rev and not engage (shoes not making contact or slipping excessively) or it will run normal while on throttle and die when you are on the brakes (Shoes not releasing).

Is this on the Buggy, or the Savage? If it is on the Savage, with a 2or 3 speed, it may be possible that the clutch springs for the 2 or 3-speed assembly may have worn, keeping it in 2nd gear. When it is "bogging" does it seem to run better once it starts getting up to speed? If so, this may be the problem.

I may be wrong on what I've mentioned, but these are the only problems I have experienced with a bad clutch.

didn't you blow up the clutch on the buggy? or was that the savy? i remember now, the stock clutch couldn't handle the power of the ws7 2! (niether can you i might add) j/k


Do not go gentle into that good night, Old age should burn and rave at close of day; Rage, rage against the dying of the light. Though wise men at their end know dark is right, Because their words had forked no lightning they Do not go gentle into that good night. Good men, the last wave by, crying how bright Their frail deeds might have danced in a green bay, Rage, rage against the dying of the light.
