I took the engine out and span the clutch bell and the gear seperate and theres no noise but when they are together they still make the noise. why?. And is they anything to do to stop the noise. PLEASE HELP ME Thanks

It is the clutch bearings,they go through a lot of stress,you did not say how much you ran the truck but clutch bearings will last about
1 or 2 gallons of fuel.

well thanks for the advice for a start. i have used about a litre of fuel but i dont know how much a gallon is so i dont know if i have used the buggy to much without changing the clutch bearing. is it easy to fix and how much will the bearings cost to buy. thanks

Depending on the model clutch bearings will cost about $10 US and is very easy to fix.Just take the engine out, the clutch housing and bearings are held in place with one screw,there may be some shimes in there (note there position!).
