Sintered clutch - slipping?

Postby Schmidi on Mon May 14, 2007 9:48 am

Hi all,

I'd like to ask you, maybe you have some experience.

A well powered Zetec Turbo engine got a sintered clutch, and it is slipping on torque. The owner was told that it is normal by a new clutch, and it wont do it anymore after some time.

What do you think, is this really normal?

Thanks for your answers in advance!

Another question on you:

AP Racing Clutch part number CP2000-35

Where can you buy it or the best price?

Thanks!
