I stuck a broom stick through the clutch against the belly of the sled and then I got it off with a wrench, I just put on the old primary spring and it worked. So what do I do now? EPI sant me the wrong spring/spring is shot or something? maybe I'll call them tomorrow. what do you think?

you need to measure it as it wears with use.

The spare belt which hasn't been used is the same width so I don't think it's the problem.

So where are the bushings? May sound like a stupid question, but I went through everything on the primary and it all looked good, nothing was cracked or worn and everything seemed to be functioning properly, I probably know what they are, just not the name of it,.

question when you run the sled does the left side of the clutch spin?(side that the re-taining bolt is on)When you give it gas the clutch does not come togther correct? I am unsure if this was asked.

I'm not really sure what you mean, the whole clutch is spinning. The way it always used to. Sorry if I'm sounding stupid.

NOpe your Not. I just didn't see this question asked. It does sound like something is not ****ing into position to engage. Something in their must be really stuck in place.

I did another cleaning and then let the sled warm up (I didn't let it warm up too much before because it's in the garage and then you can smell it through the whole house) and it worked fine. engages at 5000 rpm and stock engages at 4500 rpm, does that sound right? I figured I should double check.

The RPMs sound right...But I would still be a little concerned it didn't work before. Cleaning the clutch and letting the machine warm up honestly shouldn't have made a difference! Unless the cleaning meant an entire disassembly of the clutch, but I'm guessing you don't have the tools to do that. What do you think xcr440? I still think there is something wrong...just my two cents

not sure really, unless he had the cover wedged a bit or the weights were sticking.
