Moderator drewpy Posted April 23, 2009 Moderator Share Posted April 23, 2009 starter clutches are notorious for wearing, especially on a big engine. usually can be done with the engine in situ, but still a pain to do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ttaskmaster Posted April 24, 2009 Share Posted April 24, 2009 Aye - Sorry to say, it's a common fault with some 1100 Drags, mate. Best bet is a replacement one off eBay, Partfinder or somesuch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
