shadetree 5,853 Posted February 19, 2023 update: ok, got her up in the air, front cover pics during tear down once again !. if this new one-way bearing does not solve the problem ?, then it looks like i will be pulling this engine, and going back through it to find out what the problem is ?/!. the centrifugal clutch is just resting on the crank, i put it back on there to keep up with the parts. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
shadetree 5,853 Posted February 19, 2023 just placed an order from partzilla ( grrrrrr ! ) , because rmatv did not have the outer clutch housing ?, that rang up otd to $ 266.70. i figured what the heck, may as well replace that, seeing how i got it all apart ?. yeah yeah..it was pricey ?..but i'm not dealing with more clutch issues from here on out. the outer clutch housing looked very rough from grooves from the one-way bearing ?, i tried to get some pic's ?, but it's very hard to focus on such a shiny area , said screw it, i'll just tell them..lol. anyway, more money..more time..it's not like i'm broke or anything huh ?..

_Wilson_™ 6,558 Posted February 19, 2023 Really ?! The cats off the diesels .... I'll admit i never thought of researching what money metals (platinum, palladium, and rhodium.) the cats on diesels have in them for the reaction....ect ect..... How ever... This did catch my eye... The vehicle most likely to be de catfied According to the NICB, the 1985-2021 Ford F-Series pickup truck is the most likely vehicle to have its catalytic converter stolen. Even broken down by regions of the United States, it is the most commonly targeted vehicle in the northeast, south, and midwest. It is only bested by one car in the West. Thanks MC.......
