Car oil and clutch slip? TNT's 14
I was listening to tnt run today, I can hear the clutch slip very slightly in every gear, it wasnt trying to drive through the clutch but its enough to lose some mph and time, could the car oil he is using cause this?

the stack height looked just like mine, Smokin, come to think about it my Booza slipped like tnt's when I did my clutch mod, after adding shims it didnt slip, maybe his springs are getting weak?

Yes very likely the springs .. Try adding 3 of Brocks spacers .. They worked very well in my bike ..

I like the fact that his clutches are slipping and he's still able to go faster and with more mph than me on worse 60fts lol... I heard that the only races he lost today were at the hands of a black 14 that was running 5.7's.

Well interesting thing here I was about to post some info about this subject on oil.You can make fun of the fact that my wife is a chemist and say lol 636 .the fact is she spent a considerable amount of time doing some research on car oil vs mc oil,synthetic oil test for wet clutch mc.hp gains vs long engine life.to simply separate fact from fiction and eliminate the bad information thats prevalent online.I thought I could help e few but with your attitude im not going to post the information.

Then fuck off. No need to get your panties in a wad. Last time I checked here we're all grown men. Rather than crying, why don't you act like one.

With that said I believe it's the springs. Shim 'em or replace 'em.

by no means was I making fun of your wife. I'm pullin your leg! Why else would I say let your wife log in I stead of you.
Scientific research is wonderful. Working in reality is sometimes as good test results. We speak from how stuff works for us that make hundreds and hundreds of passes each.

Lack of mouth control is getting on here and acting like a little bitch. At this point, you still haven't been on here long enough to act like an ass. Those of us who have been here for 3-4 years know when people are messing around. New people get on and get their feelings hurt. If you want people to walk on egg shells around you, go to .net.

Did it occur to you everyone was kidding the "New Guy" Hit the search button on left
of top page and look, you will see oil topic has been beat to a pulp. The author of this
was kidding. He knows about 14 clutchs and oil. But he is THE MAN on the TRE Tech. Support too. 10:4 over and out.

I will say Bawls that I agree. However, just because someone has been on here for a long time does'nt give them the right to be a DICK. I see it far too often on here that someone with a high post count fucks with the noobs.
