bricklane Posted August 16, 2010 Report Share Posted August 16, 2010 Hi...just bought a 2005 Txt280...the clutch seems very stiff...it works fine...wondered if anyone had any ideas as to why...thanks Steve Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
laser1 Posted August 16, 2010 Report Share Posted August 16, 2010 the 05 had a stiff spring and the clutch pak thickness may be out of spec - changing the leverage the fingers provide. The 06 spring is aprox 20% lighter. Works great on a 05 provided everythng else is OK. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boni_tou_1 Posted August 17, 2010 Report Share Posted August 17, 2010 I have the same issue. As Laser1 says clutch pack thickness is the problem. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n0adW9BsAN4...feature=related for the solution Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gasgasmi Posted August 18, 2010 Report Share Posted August 18, 2010 My wife had the same issue with her's. Replaced the clutch spring with a later model (06 I think) spring and it's much better. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
