Alternate metal and friction plates. Never allow anything metal to touch another metal component of the clutch. That includes the steel plates together and against the clutch basket & cover. Yes, tighten the bolts all the way. The bolts are going into soft aluminum - so do not over tighten...

Inspect the air cleaner. A dirty filter will help start a cold engine by restricting air and richen the fuel mixture (just like using the choke). It will have the opposite effect on a warm engine.

As for the engine temperature - drain the cooling system and fill with fresh coolant. Coolant deteriorates and doesn't last forever.

Always give year, make, engine size and model # when asking questions. We need all of that info to give an informed answer. Everything is different. The light bulbs just usually pull out of the meter. Underneath the meter, the bulbs are pushed in and held in place by a rubber plug. Pull on the...

Probable intake manifold air leak. While the engine is reving, spray WD-40 all around the intake manifold where it attaches to the engine. The WD-40 will temporarily plug the leak. If the RPMs change, you found a leak

Most Jap bikes have the engine size stamped at the bottom of the cylinder.

Adjust the clutch cable. You've already noticed a problem with the clutch - rebuild it (change the clutch plates). Adjust the drive chain and check the condition of the rear sprocket damper. The next step would be to inspect the transmission - they can get damaged even on low mileage bikes from...

Clutch plates - no metal against metal. http://www.bikebandit.com/oem-parts When in doubt of the piston direction of a 2 stroke engine - make sure the piston ring ends are not in line with a cylinder port.

J-B Weld works on engine cases. http://jbweld.net/index.php Click "Find a Dealer" Most hardware stores sell it.

Roll the quad forward and back when shifting gears, while the engine is not running. The transmission gears will not mesh properly unless the quad is moving, or the engine is running.

Check the main fuse terminals. Change the main fuse to make sure that isn't a problem. The starter solenoid holds the main fuse - the solenoid may need to be replaced. Keep a 12v test light with you and ride around. When the bike goes dead, test for power at the main fuse.

Tighten the battery cable connections with a wrench, not a screw driver - a screw driver won't get them tight enough.

Other than lean jetting, the bike needs to be moving, to cool the headers.
