Oh How Original Posted July 17, 2015 Share Posted July 17, 2015 Just noticed how long that clutch mount looks. Is their no longer a need for a spacer when using the TR clutch housing? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scoobie007 Posted July 17, 2015 Author Share Posted July 17, 2015 Just noticed how long that clutch mount looks. Is their no longer a need for a spacer when using the TR clutch housing? no, no need for a spacer with the tr clutch housing bud, mounts straight up, part of the reason i went for one of these engines over a g320, i wanted to keep the tr clutch housing, and i believe they dont fit on the g320 / 340 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Oh How Original Posted July 17, 2015 Share Posted July 17, 2015 I might have to invest in one of those clutch housings, as I have a full TR clutch to compliment it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mark35 Posted July 17, 2015 Share Posted July 17, 2015 Just noticed how long that clutch mount looks. Is their no longer a need for a spacer when using the TR clutch housing? Did you not know that Dan? If you have the tr case an clutch housing you can also run 3 open bearings in the crank as im doing with my reed case. 3x skf c3 bearings an 2...12x22x7 viton seals..

Scoobie007 Posted July 17, 2015 Author Share Posted July 17, 2015 I might have to invest in one of those clutch housings, as I have a full TR clutch to compliment it. Certainly a nice bit of kit, lined up nicely, and compliment the yamadude billet casing, my next purchase will be a tr clutch system.

Scoobie007 Posted July 19, 2015 Author Share Posted July 19, 2015 (edited) So, managed to get out with this today, engine fired after 4 or 5 pulls, and a slight adjustment on the low end needle and it had a nice steady idle, happy with that....until i went to do some slow driving to break it in, the clutch has an 8k spring, and acted how it should when bolted into the cy 26cy, now its in this obr, its more like a 15k clutch lol, i initially thought i had naffed something up during re assembly as the engine just revved and the car didnt move, then eventually, after what seemed like almost 3/4 throttle, the clutch engages sharply and the car bolts off, obviously this isnt right, and not ideal for a break in, so i shut it down and brought it back home. Now as far as i can remember, the clutch went back in exactly how it came out (well so i thought lol), washers in the same order, back in the same way round, i didnt reverse the shoes, clutch was almost new when it came out the 26cc, so didnt see the point in renewing it. So any suggestions what ive possibly done wrong would be great :-) Edited July 19, 2015 by Scoobie007 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Oh How Original Posted July 19, 2015 Share Posted July 19, 2015 As per my message before bud, chances are it's either not seated right or the washers aren't the right way round, not really too much else could have that effect, unless you've used a 15ft wrench and over tightened the bolts, which if the washers are right, you can't do Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scoobie007 Posted July 19, 2015 Author Share Posted July 19, 2015 other than my clutch problems, that are undoubtedly down to me, im happy with the engine, it started easily, which for me, is part of the battle considering i built it up from a long block. The little testing i did, it hauled the baja along nicely attached to the bzm, i just hope the clutch isnt ruined engaging at such high rpms.

Oh How Original Posted July 20, 2015 Share Posted July 20, 2015 That thing shifts! I did always say that when my engine ran okay, it was very quick, but it was so unreliable and butchered. If he took a bit more time and used Zenoah engines instead of King Motor and Rovan (I nnever thought I'd say this) but I dare say he'd turn out some good engines. Mine was just butchered to hell though! Glad you like the OBR so far Andy, get that clutch sorted annd get a video up 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
