J-Madd Posted July 23, 2009 Report Share Posted July 23, 2009 Difficult to tell on gravel unless its slipping very badly. Get on some pavement or other better hooking surface and it's easy to tell. Even on gravel sometimes you can let out of the gas and get back into it and a mildly slipping clutch will engage and stop slipping. You can hear the difference in rpms if this happens.

It shouldn't hit 10,000 rpms in every gear instantly. If it does that, your clutch is fried. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
plumcrazy73dodge Posted July 24, 2009 Report Share Posted July 24, 2009 Make sure your adjustments for your clutch are all tight and that you are actually letting it engage and not just power shifting it.... as for your sprockets....if they are shot you will hear a grinding slipping noise which is not good....you can take a few links of extra chain and see how tight they are in your sprockets where your chain is not riding....if there is a lot of play then get new sprockets...make sure your chain is tight... you can normally tell if its the clutch...a banshee does not hook on gravel in any gear lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
