I PUT ON MOSTLY HIGHWAY MILES FOR THE FIRST FEW YEARS. FIRST THE CLUTCH PEDAL TO ROD BUSHING/RETAINER WOULD WEAR OUT CAUSING CLUTCH TO SUDDENLY ENGAGE WITH NO WARNING. AFTER MULTIPLE BUSHINGS, THE CLUTCH MASTER CYLINDERS STARTED FAILING FROM TOO MUCH HYDRAULIC PRESSURE.

ONCE HAD TO SHUTOFF ENGINE ANOTHER TIME IT HAPPENED BRIEFLY AND FIXED ITSELF. UPON INSPECTION I NOTICED A PIECE OF METAL WIRE SPLINTERED AND WOULD GET CAUGHT IN OTHER PARTS WHEN FULLY DEPRESSING ACCELERATOR PEDAL. BOUGHT REPLACEMENT FOR THROTTLE CABLE LINK.
