Thanks for the reply guys. Here is the deal. The clutch assy is new, original flywheel. She shifts into reverse fine. But in 1st gear it bucks when I let the clutch out then takes off quick, about lost it to the sidewalk. I may try starting off in 2nd gear and see what happens, just that 1st gear scared the bejesus otta me. Is this normal because of the lighter frsme? Thanks-Bill
