Does it have a slipper clutch? If it does you may have burned it up. Try tightening it all the way and see if it moves. If it does, then back it off 1/4 turn. That should adjust it for future running.

Can you take any pictures and post them here? What engine are you running? What kind of damage is there?

It's kind of wide open as to possible causes, but I'd check to make sure your clutch bell and spur gear are meshing properly. Sometimes after a crash, the engine may move a bit and the CB and spur may not be meshing smoothly.

Also, may check that the brake isn't dragging. Check all your linkages, make sure nothing is bent. Additionally, give your drive train a complete once-over, make sure your dog bones aren't binding.

If you can possibly throw a couple pictures up, that'd help tremendously.

OK, you need to stop trying to run it until you figure out what the problem is. If you keep trying, your liable to turn a simple repair into a major rebuild and/or kill your engine.

You need to pull the engine out and make sure that the clutch shoes and clutch bell are in working order. With the engine off, you should be able to turn the clutch bell easily and freely. If you feel dragging, then the clutch shoes may be shot.

Can you turn the flywheel with your hand? Do you hear a "pop" or feel resistance when you turn it? What .15 is it?

The more details you can include as to symptoms, the easier and quicker we can help you with it. Again, if you can post pictures, that'll speed the process up tremendously.
