Owb
Stig Rune
Nice to see a neighbor on this site, myself is from Sweden but living in Zambia and working in the Congo.
I also got in touch with HPI USA but they never commented if they would send a new bearing or not. Instead I got replies from 2 of their representatives from support and...
Never ending problem
New clutch shoes & springs, new slipper clutch pad, slipper adjusted to the bottom. Problem is still the same.
What is the factory setting on the adjustment on the tranny.
If that does not help, what is the next step in founding the fault.
Cheers

Gear Change Problem
Hej Stig Rune
My problem is not yet solved and is not exactly the same problem as yours as I understand. My car is taking off nicely and changes to no 2 gear nicely. Then suddenly it stop pulling and only revving the engine. Once I release the trigger it catch gear 3 and...
By the way, how does the gear changes work??
What does the OWB do??
Can I have a problem if the adjustment to gear 2 has been adjusted to much clock wise??
Anders
I have stripped the clutch, but it's difficult for me to say if the shoes and springs are ok or not due to I've got nothing to compare with. A friend will try to source the parts in South Africa and bring up to me in Zambia on Wednesday. Will post the outcome then.
Is there any better...
Ok, I was thinking of that when I looked at the clutch bell and saw it was a bit black, most likely from overheating.
I will check tomorrow and post a reply.
Cheers
One thing that hit me when I opened the gearbox to adjust the slipper nut was that the gears are very "loose" on the axle.
The bearings are fine.
Anders
Ok, I have tightened the slipper nut and also adjusted the gear change between 1 and 2 gear a bit.
The problem is still the same.
What do I do now??
Anders
My XL have a problem.
It takes off like it should in first gear and changes to second gear but it's only revving and not pulling, when I release the trigger a bit it changes to third gear and pulling normally again.
Have I got a Gearbox or a Clutch problem??
What must I do??
Anders
I will get the conversion kit.
I have been reading that I can't use the double set-up shocks if I change.
What shocks will fit after conversion? Do I have to change shocks at the rear as well?
