Clutch Shoes OR bell?

[VtecRacing]

Ok I'm having problems with my CXP .18 engine one of them got messed up cause i wanted to mess around with it so i bought a new one and put everything together good. But my problem was that i ran the car for a few days and now the car turns on but wont move. So i tried some things

I turned on the motor and put a stick on the Engine Gear and it stayed still,
Could that be the Clutch Shoes? that doesn't make the gear move when I acclerate the car.

Or is the car not moving cause of the Clutch Bell?

Thanks

The clutch bell should not be spinning under force if the engine is only idling. Once the engine gets up to a certain RPM, the clutch shoes will engage the clutch bell and that force will be applied to the next gear in the drivetrain. Are you saying.. when you give it throttle that the clutch bell doesn't spin?

when i give it throotle the car doesn't move.. wouldnt the problem be in the Shoes at the point?

Yep. Shoes are fried, flywheel is loose and spinning on the crank or slipper is loose or worn out. If the bell doesn't spin, then it's shoes or flywheel.

ok this is what happen to make sure.

1. I turned on the car
2. Hit the throttle and Car doesn't move
3. Took a stick put it on the Engine Gear (did not apply force just put it there)
4. Hit the Throttle and the (Engine gear didnt move.)
with the stick there

so its the clutch shoe.

I was also thinking about that flywheel being loose.

When you say "engine gear". Are you referring to the clutch bell?
