JD Gator XUV 620i clutch
Does your XUV bog when it's going up the hill, like maybe falling off the power band? If it is you can get yourself a triple beam balance scale and start removing weight off the flyweights in the drive clutch. Do 3 or 4 grams at a time and grind the weight off the sides of the weights equally so they all comform to each other and all weigh the same. This will allow the engine to rev higher to get the job accomplished. Remember if you do this,the engineers that designed the clutch tested it and came up with the weight/angle combination that suited the machine over the whole spectrum, so don't forget to try it on flat surfaces too as you make changes. You will have to rev the engine higher to shift the clutch out on flat road also. A heavy weight will shift the clutch at a lower rpm, a lighter weight will require more rpm to shift the clutch out. Pretty simple huh?

The symptoms you describe sound like the driven clutch isn't back-shifting to let the drive clutch go into a lower gear. Check the buttons on the driven clutch and make sure they are all there. One missing will bind the clutch up, two missing will really create havoc.

Don't know what a new one is, but I can't see 1mm off causing your problem. Are there any other problems? It sounds like you may be down on power. Have you checked the plugs to see if they look the same? Maybe a compression check too? Air filter? Those FD620D motors will run on flat ground on one cylinder. Run it up a hill a couple times and check the plugs.

Well, I've got one more thought. Is the rod that goes between the transaxle and the motor in place and secure at both ends? Sometimes one or the other bolt will break off in their respective housings and the motor and transaxle will move toward each other under load which would loosen the belt. If that rod is in place, I guess it's time for a belt. I would sure like to know what it was when you do get it fixed.

I hope it is a belt and you don't have to get into the EFI system or something else.

I just remembered another problem I encountered. I had an HPX that had all the rivets sheared off one side of the driven clutch. It was hard to see when it was sitting still but it shuddered like you said when it took off. But when you took the belt off you could spin one side of the driven clutch like a top.
