80 liquifire won't go

Post by deere boy »

Hey everyone l, im lookin for some thoughts. I just resealed the motor in my liquifire. Got it back together and running. Fires up no problem. With the track in the air it takes off all the clutching seems to wrk fine. Once on the ground however it won't go fwd. Thanks ahead of time for any help.

What's it do when on the ground? Bog or flood out, wont rev up? Are the clutches rebuilt with correct springs, weights, etc..?

Check the belt deflection. Maybe you're getting too much belt slippage...??
