well maybe ill keep werkin n figure it out,,,back her against a pole n burnt clutch n lil bit,,n she were fine fer bout 10 normal starts..let son try it n hes like learnin again,, n she were grabbin a tad bit after few tries..hooked her to pole wid tow strap n smoked that clutch a lil again n fine as he left..so point to me babble is would lean more towards oily plate then a warped flywheel,,now watch the fluid level i rekon (which was full) well unless a course any a yous cats have a thought i could check thanks pappy...shes nawt slippin ..shell spin on gravel n run hard n hold as up against pole,,but as try n release it to go (1st only) bout 1/2 way to out shell jump (grab) like crazee,,better jus ta dump it a lil..n thats nawt right
