Default clutch slipping
My clutch is slipping, the lever is really easy to pull in, probably not engaging all the way. Does anyone know how to take this appart and check the spring or know of a replacement spring I could get. Maybe autozone or someone has one that I could use.

Tighten the "star" nut 2-3 clicks...
If you really want to go crazy.. take it apart & sand (scuff up) the clutch pucks & the pressure plate face!

I loved Normans clutch info. Took me about three minutes to do the whole job. My clutch no longer slips and all it took was about one turn to the right on the flower nut.
