Just put a new primary and secondary clutch and drive belt in and drove it up the hill, result is its real hard coming out of Gear when idling. I disconnected the park/gear selector to see if it is in the selector lever but the gearbox end of the lever is really stuck, after alot of persuasion it moves through the gears when not running but binds up whenever i start it up indicating that the idler bearing is faulty (its brand new) and getting really hot .... Has anyone had this issue? it all spins and looks fine so not sure whats happened - Arghhh Help!

Maybe slow the idle speed down to keep the clutches free.

People have been known to put that ideler or oneway bearing in backwards. Check that. But what I want to know is why does the top cogs of this brand new belt look like they are riding on something that shredding the rubber? It also looks like the belt is riding higher in the secondary then it should and wondering if its hitting the cover. Take a look. May be a shim missing or something making it ride higher and pull harder on the bearing making it hotter. Belt should be almost loose...almost.

The parts came assembled so I assumed they were factory set. The belt is definitely too high in the secondary and seems tight it dis make it rub on the outside cowling, correct. Regarding the idler I also assumed it was installed around the right way. The idler gets burning hot in seconds and when its not running i can reach into the cone of the primary and its not fully across the bottom of the v of the cone, not sure if this is normal..... I will take a photo. Thanks for your help!

Hallelujah! I took the brand new primary out and pulled the sprag clutch (one way clutch) out and threw it in the bin, put it back together and its purring like a kitten. Either they had assembled it incorrectly or the bearing wasn't back far enough on the shaft. Thanks for your help!

So you are running it without a one-way?
