i didnt notice any slipping two days before when i drove it. matter of fact it ran really well. do you think i need to take the clutch thing apart. you know unscrew the screws that determine when it shifts or can i just wipe it off really well? also what does a bad spur look like cause there are just a few teeth(id say 8 or 9) that look just slightly ruff. they dont look really chewed up or anything. and thanx for the advice, clay
