    T'was a great day, worth the drive and putting up with the little ones. Had to watch my step, house is booby trapped, only place where it might be save was the kitchen and that mostly contained Yvette and she was making good food, so of course that was a good place to stay away from,,,,, so we had to spend time in the garage, so I thought,: might as well work on the bike to help pass the time. Sure was a great day and in the process found a fantastic Plastex worker of miracles, man, does Yvette have a way with that stuff,,, lucky for you Steve,,,, you got lots of them cracks,,,,, I had to leave before Yvette found me. Thanks for brunch, supper and all that was served in-between, and tell Yevette she can come to cook at our M&G anytime.

    They must have figured that if they didn't sell you the part right now,,, at your age they might not get to sell it at all,,,,, smart business people,, sell it when you can.

    Don't wait,, go now,, er, you should be there rather than reading this. And to prepare for the next time that it might happen that the scooter should fall over,,,, learn how to get it up right without a lot of effort,,, by yourself, it ain't hard to do.

    You'll need to have the choke open to get proper vacuum reading. Also check to make sure that the chokes themselves are in the open position, although you may have moved the lever back to off, the choke plungers may not have made it all the way back to open.

    Did you check the diaphrams for really little pin holes,,, it won't right with those pinholes in place and if the diaphrams are original they will have some holes.

    If you need a gasket for that location, just wrap it with foil tape in place of the gasket. Works wonders and even shines.

    My thoughts more or less exactly,,,,, but I would want to add my thoughts on the fact that this scoot could be a right danger to ride. FIX IT FIRST!!!!!

    Had to be a proud moment but maybe also a scary one,,,, after all, who taught him how to fly that thing,,,, does he really know what he is doing,,, has he got it right,,,,, he never knew those things when he was home,,,, is he old enough for that???? Ya, just some common fears I suppose,,, but it was still him flying that bird, wasn't it,,, WOW,,, and he spoke so official on the intercom,,, man, has he grown up or what.. Congrats you two, you've got some awesome kids.

    On further thought, the ciri-spring might install after the second steel plate, but you'll be able to see that as to where the cut-out is for it's proper location in the sequence.

    After further thought, let's just go over this piece by piece: You have all the parts out, clutch and boss, so you have only the shaft sticking out. So now you slide the clutch boss onto the shaft, then the thrust washer which slides right over and past the spline. If it doesn't slide past the spline then the boss has not meshed properly with the oil pump gear and you need to aline those two. Getting your fingers behind the boss may be tight, you then you slide the clutch basket onto the shaft and then the locking washer with the nut which you then torque. Now you put the clutch plates into the basket, the first plate goes in with the large, single square cut out lined with the markings on the basket (2 dots on the shorter tangs), install a steel plate and the another fiber plate at which time you now install the ciri-spring. After that comes the rest of the plates alternating them between fiber and steel with the double cut outs now lined with the marks on the basket. Now install the pressure plate. You'll find a dot on the outside of the pressure plate and a corresponding on the basket, these need to be lined up or things won't work right. Install the springs and cover and you should be good to go,,,, unless, as Goose says, there is an air bubble in the master. Sometimes this air bubble can be removed by simply working the handle a little bit, just enough to move the piston. You'll need to remove the master cover to be able to watch for any air coming out. It's also a good idea to remove any old fluid from the master and clean all debris out of there before you start. You can do this with a syringe and some brake cleaner, or contact cleaner. Just make sure that all is dry and clean before you pour in the new fluid. This is the right time to be anal about something. Hope this helps some, can be thoroughly frustrating when it won't come together right, sometimes it's just a little thing that turns out to be a show stopper.

    I just had mine out yesterday and I would think that it should be more like 3\16 than 3\32. Did you aline the marks on the pressure plate with the clutch boss? It's a little dot mark and there is only one way they fit together. If they're not matched up, you'll not get the spread you need and it won't disengage,,, don't ask me how I found this out.

    Ann and Evan stopped by yesterday,,, spent about 1.5 hours talking about their trip,,, what an awesome time they had,,, they seen beautiful country, practically no rain, and no problems that they couldn't handle on the road. I think I would like to have their trip map. Anybody want to go for a ride? We'd be back in 35 days.

    Are you trying to keep this thread from going south, by talking NORTH, so we get blamed again?

    Check to make sure that the lugs on the ends of the battery cables are tight.
