[QUOTE="hrc200x, post: 192149, member: 152"] My experience with slipping clutches when trying to start is that it gets better when its warmed up. The easier or softer you can kick it when its doing its clutch slip thing the better the chances are of it turning the motor over and starting. As with everything 4 stroke, kick start or pull start, kick slowly till find the most compression, roll motor just past that then kick what's needed to start. Trying to pull start or kick start any 4 stroke through the compression stroke will be harder on starter parts than doing it the above mentioned way. Plates are probably wore or just old glazed cork and replacing would fix the issue, adjusting clutch might help but usually does not [/QUOTE]
