Rusty springs on clutch

[dave1701]

I can see through da little holes dat da springs sure are rusty. Problem is, I'm too lazy to take the clutch off and open it up. Is it OK if they're a little rusty?

Yup, can't be helped.

Yea, doesnt matter at all, as long as the spring itself has not been overheated.

Clutch work? Then don't worry about it.

 

[dave1701]

Thanks, thats what I thought, but just in case....

Perhaps coat them in oil or grease?

Then when that gets transferred to the shoes, enjoy your non working clutch.

I imagine it would just burn/evaporate off but yeah, could be a problem...
