MochetVelo Posted February 15, 2020 Share Posted February 15, 2020 What are the symptoms of a slipping Model 20 clutch? Mine doesn't seem to slip going up hills (which I do in low gear and the accelerator fully depressed). However, the car bucks when starting off up a mild incline.

Simon Anderson Posted February 17, 2020 Share Posted February 17, 2020 if the clutch is slipping, the engine will rev up. by the brief description, it sounds like your clutch is biting/shudering which can happen, but have a look at your oil level and weight on oil. Mine did a simallar thing and i went to a slightly heaver oil 90wt, and it is very nice. the only problem i have uncounted is i have to wait a few seconds before selecting a gear due to the plates sticking together when its cold.

1910Hupp Posted March 30, 2020 Share Posted March 30, 2020 I once tried EP oil in the gearbox and severe slippage with this the car wouldn't drive up a slight slope I went to 30 weight gear oil and it was fine but now i just use 30 wt engine oil and have no problems Karl Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
