    Is my clutch dead??????

    I just started to notice the clutch is grabbing really really high. (just about and inch of freeplay) i already adjusted the plastic screw by the tranny with not much diffrence to even notice. Is there anyway to keep this baby goin without putting money into it???

    Keep turning the plastic screw. When you run out of room to turn, replace the cable. Fix it quickly or you run the risk of burning up your clutch.

    Down. You want to screw the knob as if you were trying to screw it off the aluminum housing. If it's at the end of the housing, then you need a new cable.
