The '96 300EX clutch is starting to act up. From what I can tell, it doesn't slip. However, it sort of fails to disengage completely. When you release it, it waits till the very end of the pull to completely engage and I'm still running the least amount of free play. Is this a sign that the fibers are getting thinner, or is it a grooved clutch basket? I'm the original owner so the clutch has not been replaced before.... it's still on the original chain and sprockets! Thanks!

I forgot about the adjustment down on the motor. :confused: Maybe that'll help. Thanks.
