Working on tuning our Hilliard Flame for a blue slide cadet kart.
Do folks find that the Hilliard engagement chart is pretty accurate? I had my clutch set for 3200 engagement with 2 black and 2 yellow (trying to get close to 3000) but when I tested it by holding the tire gently and giving it some throttle on the stand it seemed to start engaging at 2900 RPM.
Are my springs bad? Or is there just some normal variability and you need to check where things actually are after tuning the clutch?
Our clutch is about 1 season old - should I get a new one? New shoes? it looks ok and is not galled but not sure about this.
