ok ordered new cover how do i know if i need to repace clutches

 

that should have the non ebs clutches, if the shivs are smooth on both clutches, your probably alright , might put a new set of buttons in the secondary, are the clutches working alright?,when they go bad ther are usually strange noises and they start acting strange, creeping, loss of power ect.

 

Your clutches are fine.You have to take them off the change the two inside seals though.

 

now do you think that I should replace the clutches. I have no record for when it was done last. The first owner took care of the machine probably better then his kids, ha. But the man I purchased it from, ran it into the ground, so that means that I have had to do quite a bit to it. Which I do not mind doing just do not want to replace things that do not need it. I did order a new cover. Just was tring to get an opinion on changing clutches or not. When the cover is off it looks like it is brand new in there. What are signs of wear ext cause everything looks to be ok. I know people replace buttons springs and so on. just need some info on it.

 

Sorry I didn't know there was another page. didn't mean to post the same basic thing twice. I am going to just replace the seals and the cover for now, cause like I said the clutches look fine to me, and i am not going to worry about it until something starts to go wrong.
