One other possibility is that the EG33 may not have been designed to withstand significant side-loads on the crankshaft from the clutch action. Beav brought up the possibility a while ago. I'm wondering if maybe the motor can handle a push-type load (Huck's motor holding up fine), but cannot handle a pull-type load. I know there are a number of people out there who have been using pull-type clutches for a while with no problems, but still, I wonder. Anyone have any experience in this area?
