| | Major clutch arm problems My clutch arm moves around freely and doesn't hit against anything. So of course its not starting, I have the grubee skyhawk 66/80cc engine that I bought from bikeberry, back around three months ago. But I'm a pretty big noob, because I'm only 16 and have no clue about these engines. |

| | Re: Major clutch arm problems There is a ball bearing and a rod that should be inside the sprocket.
Remove the left cover (drive side) and look up in the center of the sprocket...are they there?

| | Re: Major clutch arm problems There should be a rod, with a ball bearing behind it. They can't go inside the engine, but they can fall out if you took the cover off and were unaware that they were in there.

| | Re: Major clutch arm problems They should be available from any vendor, if the guy who sold you the kit doesn't have any, call around.
