Hi
Not sure what is happening but first gear or drive shaft is making clank type noise under easy acceleration. Gets louder when I back off the gas. goes away when I give it wheel spinning power in dirt. Not sure but it may disappear when I push in the clutch.
Does not make this sound in other gears.
I can get a recording of it and post it to a web page.
Any ideas?
thanks

Put this on the Spridget forum and you'll get some answers.
Have you checked your motor mounts and fan clearances?

good luck,
randy
