seems to run all right. but lacks speed,

power on hills. Diff. carburetor ad-

I Would suggest that you open up the
I'houslng and make a careful inspec-
tion of the clutch parts. There is a.
clutch thrust bearing w,hich if not
properly lubricated. will wear and‘
permit too much lost motion. if this
,ball race has worn considerably the
itension of the clutch spring will be
lessened and the clutch will slip.
From what you have stated the clutch
is slipping badly, and this accounts
,for the apparent loss of power You
inlay find it necessary to install a few
{new parts in the clutch to remedy the
: trouble.
