August 6, 201412 yr Hi I have a 280 pro with a slipping clutch when accelerating, changed the gear oil to putoline light gear and that's not cured it. I'm thinking a new set of clutch plates. Is there anything else I should try or check before I get new plates? Thanks, harry
August 7, 201412 yr You can measure the fiber and steel thickness. Also measure the Belleville washer. If they are worn too think they need to be replaced.
August 13, 201412 yr You dont need a full clutch pack just measure the hight of the fingers and you can buy different thickness steel plates to bring the finger hieght up. you can do this to adjust clutch lightness. I had this problem when i got mine. I decided to go on atf oil wich swelled the fibers up. All i needed was 1 different thickness steel plate hope this helps there are plenty of threads on ere about clutch pack measurments
