Hi people , whilst driving my lil car I'm getting lots of clutch judder . Is this going to be fixable by adjustment or is it likely to be more expensive? Also the engine is a bit sputtery if I floor it and sometimes when tuning off the engine it sometimes runs for couple of seconds before quitting . Is this a carb problem ? Maybe timing? It's a 1275 with Kent cam. Many thanks guys :-)

Clutch judder can be caused by several things. soft engine mounts, oil on the pressure, the design of the mini clutch means judder did happen and why the change to the verto clutch to try and solve it. see if you have any oil in the bottom hole with the split pin in< if so the oils coming from the big red crank shaft seat and most likely on the centre plate.

 

Running on is caused by incorrect carb idle speed/mixture, timing incorrrect or carbon build up in the combustion chambers
