The same size, somewhat so it all looked fine. The mechanical noise/grinding was the new 12 tooth slipping on the chain under load. Then in looking closely you could see the teeth not fully engaging the chain. Understood on oiling the bushing. thanks again.

Holy cow, I was putting a 12 tooth clutch on, when the original was a 10 tooth! What a bone-head move. Swapped the outer cage to get the 10 tooth on the new clutch, all good! unbelievable! Works nice and quiet.

Replacing the clutch on the predator. At idle and general driving, original clutch would make a ton of racket, like a rod knock. Put new clutch on, very quiet at idle. No clanking sound. Rev up engine to take off, terrible mechanical clanking. My guess is clutch is partially engaged and...

finally got the homemade chain guard on, gotta keep the kids safe and from flinging junk everywhere. Keeping costs down, fun factor up!

GOLD! yes, I could see something was missing from the rear, couldn't tell what it was. Thanks agaon.

From CA, predator 212, clutch seems very noisy (almost like a rod knock, or is) but we got it running after going through carb, changing the oil, and finally rocking the crank back and forth to free the rust-locked piston. Working on home made chain guard for it now.
