1979 YZ 250 f Clutch
« on: October 24, 2011, 08:51:55 pm »
Can anyone tell me the reason why a working clutch would suddenly stop. I have no resistance at all on on the push lever/ actuator. The push rod and bearing seem fine. The push lever doesn't seem to engage with the clutch at all. I have adjusted the screw on the outside of the pressure plate right in and still nothing??

Maybe the retaing plate for the bearing behind the clutch has loosened

push rod seems fine. Retaining plate, don't know. I'll check it tonight. Thanks
