For those who haven't tried it yet but are forced to in the future.... Better to hand crank it over, they start easily even with a pretty dead baterry. Barring that, I think the 'safest' way to 'bump start' is not a bump start and popping the clutch at all...I have done this once with no problem or damage at all.... Put it in 3rd gear (HIGHEST gear), leave the clutch alone, chain on the front of it somewhere (I had my front plow), ease out the slack in the chain, and pull SLOWLY - when she starts up, push the clutch in so you don't rear-end the puller. Gentle way to do it... Hope this saves someone from some damage on down the line, but pull or bump starting anything risks damage, so even this use with great caution - cheaper to own a handcrank. For the original question, if it doesnt go away, look to see if you bent the shaft in the torque tube or have something out of alignment that is causing a wobble. Could also be something as simple as a pilot bushing problem (did you replace it when you did the clutch?) Good Luck... -Ken (in NY)
