Yeah, a new thread!
« on: June 25, 2013, 02:36:25 PM »
 LMAO 
Been sorta sllooww around here, but I'm about to unload rail out of trailer from spring trip.  Been too busy to even bother tempting myself with looking at it.  Pretty sure clutch is smoked.  Changed oil (burnt) at dunes and was better but after 2-3 hard runs 2nd and 3rd would slip and rev out at the 5-6k range.  Up in air on billet basket, I know I should, and will have to for turbo time, but also up about 3 or 6 HD clutch springs.  '00-'02 zx12 had oil issue with clutch and there are some mods to it to better oil and keep from the heat.  Heat would slip.  The 12r seems to have a voodoo clutch and many have problems with anything other than stock so stock it is.  Mod it for more oil flow HD springs and maybe its got a billet basket when I open it up?

If I believe I cannot do something it makes me incapable of doing it. But when I believe that I can, then I acquire the ability to do it , even if I didn't have it at the beginning.

Clutches are easy. Take it apart and see how black the steels are.

I'm 50-50 on fall trip.  Want too, but might not be able too.  We will see.

This is first motor I didn't even look at clutch on.  I think my cooling problems with rad placement helped cook the oil along with the clutch slave being mounted right next to the block.  When slave got hot it pulled just enough to start the slipping process. 
Still got an electrical issue that will draw battery down overnight.  Something with a relay from charging system.  So got to sort that and finish the cleanup of the harness.  Half looks good the other half is a bit scarey.
But I must give a big  jj: jj: to the peeps at Bazzaz.  They never made a unit for the 12, so the tech guy there said the 10 harness should plug in and run letting the autotune part fix the map.  Well the 12 uses diff timing on crank sensor and reads only 40% rpm.  Sent back to Bazzaz and they reprogrammed unit for correct crank sensor for the 12, using programming for the 14(it was closer) and a harness from a 10.  rofl  Only 1 plug wire. TPS, had to be modified.  NO CHARGE for the extra programming work they did.
