Re: Metallic scoring noise when clutch engaged

Hi, Craig, The sequence of re assembly you quoted isn't the same as the manual, however the sequence you used could be used when replacing the seals only to save removing the cover. In the manual the primary driven gear and clutch outer basket are assembled together in the case first, then the case...

Re: Metallic scoring noise when clutch engaged

Somebody posted today about loose bush and loctite, I am so sorry but somehow I managed to delete the post. I am new to the forum and don't find it very intuitive to use, probably an age thing, SORRY. If it was you please post it again. Found it Doh! definitely an age thing.

Re: Metallic scoring noise when clutch engaged

Hi If the clutch basket socket cap screws are too long it will cause the problem you described. They should be 22mm as measured on a dismantled engine of known provenance. They must not protrude out of the driven gear. M6 x22 is not DIN912 standard by the way. 20 or 25 are standard. Mark Hi Mark Yo...

The washer behind the primary is mounted the correct way, the reduced face towards the bearing?
Hi Norbert, the bevelled edge of the washer is definitely facing the bearing and no loose studs. Any further thoughts gratefully received. Thank you

Re: Metallic scoring noise when clutch engaged

Not sure I'm thinking this through right, but have you missed out the thrust washer with the 4 ears between the clutch inner and outer drums? That is there to deal with the lateral movement of the primary gear and clutch outer drum assembly. Hi Steve Thanks for the reply but the nylon thrust washer...
