Clutch stays engaged at idle

Greetings, I read your question and I think heavy-equipmentmanual.com can help you in this. Here's the site link - https://www.heavy-equipmentmanual.com/

Hey Jason,

What?? .. slow down and give me more specific detail.. this is not a complicated problem .. just need more info.. could be a simple clutch adjustment... or you need new clutch fiber plates??

Bad linkage between shift lever and the transmission.

What model ATv do you have

The if the clutch is operating ok the problem is in the transmission shift parts.

You can try to adjust the linkage below the shifter should be 2 rods there one is low gear other is forward and backwards if that's doesn't do it then you have to pull trans out and sleeve the shift heads hope you can just adjust it

Often, it mean that the clutch stay engage.
Now the question can be, is the idle to high for the clutch to disengage while at idle? you might try to reduce the idle speed by turning eather the nob on carburator or the ajustement on the cable.

then if the idle is very low and the clutch still engage (that is why you can not shift) you migh want to check at the clutch and see if it is not stuck.

I am not really understanding what is going on...
.. OK...With ALL the clutch components and the drive chain removed - can you (in each gear) SPIN the main transmission shaft ALOT( 20+ turns) in the correct (drive) direction?..I think its counterclockwise.

It is important to remove the drive chain and all clutch components to do this check. You are checking for a SINGLE CRACKED GEAR TOOTH .. the crack will be at the base of a tooth.

Do this check exactly as described.. you are checking the functionality of the transmission alone. - no clutch-no drive chain. If you do have a cracked tooth, the transmission will only rotate about 340 degrees in either direction.
If it was the clutch giving the problem, it would happen in ALL gears...

After the check.. repost and we'll go from there.

sounds like you need to adjust the idle. it trying to move when the revs are high is what its supposed to do.
