Okay, thanks.

MT2 RTR:

I've got another problem: About two weeks ago I posted some pics up of my melted clutch bell gear. I'm not sure what caused it, but it broke. I've bought a replacement racing clutch bell, but here's my problem: I've taken the engine out, attached the new clutch bell, and just to check things over I've pulled the pull-start but the clutch bell is spinning as I do this - Should it spin?

Just as my car broke a few weeks ago, when I went to start it the car lunged forward as I tugged on the pull start. As I pulled on the pull start, the wheels span. Now, at the time I noted that this was probably because my clutch bell was broken, but now (with the engine out), the (new) clutch bell STILL appears to be turning as I pull on the pull start. I'm completely confused. Surely the clutch bell shouldn't turn, as this is going to turn the spur gear too, thus turning the wheels?

Help!
