i'm having a problem with my secondary clutch on my 1988 exciter. *last winter my snap ring on the secondary clutch blew out and it drove the helix into the bairing.. so everything has been replaced, new helix, bairing, washers, etc.. i have a book for the sled, the stock setting for the secondary sleave is A on the secondary sleave and 2 on the helix... the book tells you to compress just before it will grap... then turn the sleave counter-clock wise 50 degrees.. push the helix down and put the snap ring on. * okay, when i get out on the trail, i open her up and i get to about 60- 65 mph pulling about 5800 rpms... and it won't go anywhere??? *it seems like the secondary is shifting way to early, therefore putting to much of a load on the engine... * the primary clutch has been totally rebuilt, carberators have been rebuilt, new pistons and rings, and new crank case seals... so i know it has to been something with the clutching. *The primary and secondary sleeves have been align and are at the correct distance...
Would anyone have any ideas on what i should try?http://www.snowmobileworld.com/forums/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/confused.gif *Is the secondary sleave being preloaded wrong?http://www.snowmobileworld.com/forums/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/confused.gif
