Thanks Quinton. I have adjusted in the method you have described plus I have found that the arm on the auto clutch with the slot is finely helping. I have seen that some say that the arm needs to move, that it will ruin the bearing if left tight, I have mine snugged up and now the belts are behaving. My bike has no provision to be left loose to accommodate a hand clutch, there is no sleeve in the arm to take up the ware against the holding bolt. The slot allows you to loosen the bolt and the spring is supposed to pull the mess up and forward or to the rear or both. I help the movement by hand and then snug the bolt. I have added grease to the inner bearing and will keep an eye on the workings. I am not a fan of the auto clutch but it allows the engine to run up to the best HP and then pull the bike. If I were doing that with the hand clutch the belts would not last long. On the original Whizzer's I have ridden you just lug the engine to keep away from the belt slipping. Thanks for the help. Have fun, Dave
