My G clutch (cam style) will just pop out sometimes it doesn't snap in like the A or B Seems like the weight of the lever will pull it out -- new disks --- no other new parts -- anyone an expert on cam clutch??

thanks I can live with it like it is--it bothered some last spring breaking in the new piston rings hooked to 3/16 plow it won't have to work very hard the rest of it's life-it's got lots of wear in all parts of the clutch--and I had to shim the drive disk on the crank I'm lucky it works at all

Dave, on the clutch not "snapping in", that's normal for the "G" cam operated clutch. That �G� Cam clutch doesn't have much if any of a snap.
~Now on the popping out issue, that's a little harder to diagnose over the Internet. The basic issue is worn parts. Sometimes you can get satisfactory operation by playing with the adjusting nut tension & in a lot of cases tighter isn't always better. When that clutch was new the hand lever operating force could be kept at around 90-100 lbs with a good engagement quality. Once the parts wear you should start at a high lever force & slowly back it down until you either get it too low & it slips or you aren't making any gains in hold in. ~I haven't really worked on enough of those cam clutches to tell you exactly what to do to make a worn one work, [you can't just machine the operating sleeve like on a conventional clutch]. On the few that I have worked on I replaced the cams & adjusting bolts to get them working again [I doubt you will find any new or decent used parts for that cam clutch]. Most of those cam clutches have been replaced with the later conventional over center clutch parts.
~If you have worn pins or pin holes for the cams you might try larger pins to see if that helps.
~One other thing that seems to help a little is to take all the slop out of the hand lever & linkage. If that lever bounces around it tends to work the clutch out of engagment.

Evening Dave, Have you already adjusted the tension nuts there right under the cover, the ones with the castellations and cotter pins (assumign they were replaced). They should all be adjusted and kept approximately equal with the same number of adjustment turns, in to tighten till she snaps in tight, or out if too tight to snap in. Ol John T
