<VV> dumb question!/clutch job

[Ray Rodriguez III]

Thanks for the info Lon, I will (already started) inspect everything 
carefully.  The flywheel is bolted and seems perfect.. so hopefully I wont 
have those type problems on my hands.

The pilot bushing is VERY loose on the shaft.....  almost seems like it 
wasnt the right size to begin with...  As I recall there are two different 
sizes correct?  It's also kinda silver in color..and I remember the ones 
I've seen before being a kind of brass/copperish color....

Also of note, the nearly new clutch that was in there is the crappy rivited 
type... so there is no question... I have to replace it.


I guess now I'm supposed to be grateful that I can get away with replacing 
"only" the clutch? <ggg>

PS- havent checked the shaft for straightness yet, but I will.
