So my clutch arm needs to move further and further in for my clutch to work. Today it just completely failed. So i opened up the small cover and the nut, which is in the pic i included, was not threaded on the shaft at all. So i figured this was an issue and put it back on, however i cannot tighten it as much as i would like because i can't fit any wrench i have in there or a socket. Any ideas on the tool i should be using. I have it working again, just would like to tighten it a little more. Thanks

You probably need a "thin"wall socket,,and"" SHOULD tighten befor riding""so no more damage can occuer,,,I don't know why the small key hasn't worn through !?(it keeps the gear in place )If it gets a piece of key under the chain ,it can lock-up and bend the shaft(u don't want that,engine re-build)

get a deep socket when you do. If you have a harbor freight close by you can get a good price
on the socket set. The tools are cheap made China or India but will work for these finely made
like a Swiss clock engines :rolleyes:
