Re: [Honda-C70] Re: why does my engine kick over part and then slip on the down swing

 

When you say it jumps, when you shift into gear and hold the shifter, does the clutch
desengage? By that I mean when you rev the engine. It could be your shift shaft
input to the clutch is not working.

Jumps?

Electric starter doesn't require a working clutch. It drives the
crankshaft off the back of the generator flywheel.

Slipping during a shift can be anything from bad oil to worn plates.
