What transmission are you running? Does it have a slipper clutch? Sounds like you do and it's slipping. If this is the case just tighten it some.

old style or new? if it's the old style with the plastic gears check the idler gear sounds like it may be stripped... or what he ^^^^ said.

Take it apart till you find the problem, it's called tinkering!!

Sounds like it might be the internal slipper, pull the trans apart and replce the plastic gears inside ONLY THE PLASTIC ONE!! then put it back together remembering what screws went where, that should solve it |

Actually open up the transmission, and take a look at what is inside. Then report back with your findings. What were you tinkering with for two days? Odds are you haven't locked the slipper. |
