1988 Marathon grinding noise (video)
Can anyone help me troubleshoot this noise. Im posting from my phone if the video doesn't work i will load from computer. Thanks.
EDIT Still trying to get video to upload but here are a few pictures of my clutch (i believe). Sorry for lack of knowledge I am new to all of this. Last edited by comin_in_hot; 03-21-2017 at 07:02 PM.. Reason: added pictures |

I posted the video to Youtube because I couldn't get it to load. Let me know if you have any suggestions. I have already done the HEI conversion and have learned alot from this site. You guys rock! Thanks |

Thanks for the reply. That is what I suspected. Do you know if I can put a smaller belt on or if there is a tension adjustment on my cart?

I believe the drive belt looks loose because of a clutch issue. I will need a better video from the top and hopefully longer than 5 seconds to see if it is the primary or secondary that looks weak. One of them isn't holding position well and it is allowing to belt to slap around.

The front plate on your driven clutch looks pretty sloppy.

This video is 30 sec. Should I be able to pull on the drive clutch and spread it out? Let me know if you need a different angle or even longer. Thanks Last edited by comin_in_hot; 03-22-2017 at 05:22 PM.. Reason: better discription |
