Thanks Lynn E. for all the help on this quad. I finally got spark by going to a 6-pin go-kart CDI, and rewiring the whole quad.
Now, when running in neutral, and I shift down, (1st gear, I'm guessing), it lurches forward and dies. It won't idle in gear at all. If I hit the starter with it in gear, it will drive the quad forward.
Here's my question. This one has the bearing in the little cover on the outside of the clutch. The adjustment screw/nut on the outside of the housing cannot push that bearing anywhere. So how does anything adjust the tension on the clutch plates?




Am I missing a part or something?
