New engine, clutch issue?
Had a "mechanic" replace my 16hp vanguard with a brand new 23hp vanguard for my 1996 Max II. Had an issue with idle too high on new machine. Mechanic put a spring to hold back idle. Caused loss at high end speed. Took off and works better. Seems to lose a little speed and has not too much torque up a hill with two riders. Was advised from engine supplier that clutch probably needed replacement. Ordered new clutch. From here on in - will change mechanics. Hope this resolves the issue. Any input will be appreciated on what impact the clutch or for that matter, proper belt adjustments etc. would have on performance.
