Clark C500 SERIES:
Clutch issues

I have a C500-40. it works fine on flat surfaces but when i try to go up an incline it doesnt go, the tires wont spin. I was told it is a clutch problem I just to make sure eveything down from the lever was tight and it all looks good. what shoul i try. I dont want to spend to much money on it because it already leaks radiator fluid into the engine oil so just trying to limp it along.

Make sure the linkage from the petal is adjusted so there is some "freeplay" in it. As a clutch wears the freeplay becomes less and may not let the clutch engage all the way.
