Clutch siezed, wheel not moving. 2008/03/27 06:56 Karma: 0  
So i assembled this wonderful contraption. The only problem is the wheel doesn't spin no matter if I pull the clutch or not. I guess I'm wondering if i should disassemble the clutch and attempt to reassemble with little to no small engine knowledge. Or if there is a simpler fix. also i already tried adjusting the clutch and trying it in several different positions. Any thoughts?

Chect to see if your chain is binding up in the sproket... take the cover off and if your chain is too loose it will bind up between the motor sproket and wall of the cover, tighten your tentioner and you should be good to go!

jordandugo, You may have to remove some links from the chain to get the proper chain adjustment. You want to have at least 1/2inch of chain slack.
