This is interesting, is it a centrifugal clutch? with a free wheel on the end. Could you take a couple pictures of it close up?...................Curt

I don't think you should be giving out your address on the internet, - not unless you want all manner of undesirable folk climbing in through your windows or breaking into your garage.
