Hi All
Looking for some advice on how to test if our clutches are meeting optimum performance (running 2 x GX160's). While I don't think we have a problem as such (i.e. we accelerate and the clutches engage and we go forward), I'm not sure how to go about testing the clutch to back this statement up. They start to engage/"rattle" at around 2000-2100 rpm.

The main questions are around trying to identify weak points. I'm guessing the boot wear is an obvious start, but I'm not sure what would be considered as worn boots (i.e. would they just slip and stop engaging or would it be less obvious?).

Any advice welcomed. =)
