So I’ve had my clutch apart maybe 10 times. Replaced the push rods and ball. Plates ect: the first time the one rod broke. But now after riding for an hour I lost all clutch lever. Any help?

No leaks and I think I have the screw at 2 turns out. Middle clip got the needle.

The carb was flooding out bc the float was never fully closing off fuel flow. Thing runs flawless from 3/8-WOT. Now from idle to 3/8 is not as crisp as I would like. And backfires it seems. Like it’s too lean. Maybe lift the needle one?

Honestly probably not. I know the float isn’t right because it’ll flood the carb out on occasion. I haven’t even touched the carb I’ve only had it a month and had engine trouble already so that was kinda the back burner. But now that the engine is all sorted out I’m looking at the other things...

Ok. 270 sounds like a starting spot. What about pilot and needle position? I ripped it around for about an hour and all seemed good. Gotta redo the adjustment for the clutch tho. No big deal tho. Def needs a good carb rebuild anyways.

Threads seemed okay. I threw alittle loctite on it also. Seems good. Will let y’all know how it goes first ride. I do know I need to rejet it. It has a stock 230 main with a full fmf exhaust. Not too sure if I should have a 250 in her or not.

For some reason it says I can’t upload pictures. Says the file is too big. Anyways I took the clutch cover back off and found the Nut to the primary drive gear completely backed off. It looks stripped too.. was I supposed to put like red loctite on it?? I don’t think I had the key lined up...

I’ll look into a parts diagram and see what I come up with. Thanks

What would cause this to keep happening?

The primary drive gear. Moves in and out a significant amount.

The gear does move in and out. Is it not supposed to??

Ok so the last post was about a bad bad vibration. It’s a 04 blaster. I thought I fixed the issue. It appeared the counter balance for the crank had come lose. Causing the vibration. I tightened it down and went to ride again. All was good for about 45 seconds and now we’re back to vibrating...

Key way was fine but the gear was soo lose that the key for the keyway wasn’t in place which allowed the gear to spin freely.

Not the actual case but rather the clutch cover. The section that blocks the trans fluid from the oil injection pump. Had a hole in it about the size of a quarter. I looked and saw no signs of other damage: key way was fine ect. Maybe last owner rebuilt it incorrectly?

So this is my diagnosis. I was riding and the but came loose to the counterbalance. Causing it to not spin which caused a vibration. Something took a chunk out of the case where the oil inj pump is. Causing it to leak fluid..
