Hey all, I am new to the forum and MB generally. I have built a HT kit with about 70 miles on it so far. Still working the gremlins out of it. I don't have a lot of small engine experience but am a quick learner - so I'm not sure what everything is called.
Anyway, to the point: I got home from a 12 mile trip and found a round hole in the clutch cover plate. !!!??? So my question is what is that bolt in my hand? Why did it fall out, strip itself, and burn a hole through the plate? I have a 36t sprocket and suspect I am not peddling fast enough when I start it causing this, but I don't know. Thanks.
