    Jumper cables? Nah....there is a newer, better way to go.

    Nice interesting chart but.. The crucial factor is not voltage but available current battery reserve.. A battery can test @ higher voltage but when the starter current draw is applied the voltage can/will decrease big-time... Just my $0.02... :thumbsup:

    Centerforce clutch problems. Any one have any ideas?

    Key point is this clearance will decrease as the clutch wears.. 1/8" to 1/4" should be fine.

If all of the clutch link system is in good condition then...
