I hear so many guys have trouble will clutch dics sticking to flywheel and pressure plates, that I am wondering if this type of clutch might freeze up and not give the driveline the protection it should. Short of taking it apart frequently and cleaning it, what is the best way to maintain this clutch so it will work when needed?
