Clutch Question???

[WinderFab]

Hey Guys,

I'm no clutch professor so hears my question does the primary clutch weights move around when the sled is off, (not running)

I hear a rattle from the front end of the sled (clutch side), so i took a look and noticed the weights move around,

sounds like they are rattling around,

is that normal or something going on in there...

Thanks

Anybody....

most likely the pins for the rollers...you can add a nylon washer to dampen...
but I should ask...how many miles on the clutch...if the clutch is binding...the weights are unloaded and will rattle...but you would have other symptoms.....
need more info...assume allis stock in the clutching..etc

Yes all is stock...

11000 k on the sled all original...

with the sled off the rollers do not touch the weights... is that ok

sj what kind of info needed..

Thanks

11k is like what...6500 miles? you might be in need of clutch service...bushings and sliders wear...and there's undesireable freeplay most likely...once on a bench and pulled apart it would be more evident...spring for sure...maybe rollers...slider pucks...clutch cover bushing...even the weights themselves..

It is normal for the roller to not touch the weights with engine off.
