Hi,

Welcome to the club.

That does definitely sound like your clutch is not engaging properly. The engine is revving high, but not a lot of drive. I would take the clutch bell off, and check the shoes are not totaly worn away. Also, try roughing up the inside of the bell.

The other thing to check if you have changed the motor, are you using the same flywheel/drive, or are you using the one that came with the engine? It could be that the gear on the clutch bell is the wrong size.

They never were the fastest model out there, but they were quicker than that.

The shoes do have a fair amount of wear. They are original. The bell is also original I will rough up. 

I'm using the original flywheel and bell housing. nothing came with the engine so I had to reuse the 1 off the original 11 engine. 

can you buy a replacement clutch that will do the job?

I also have an issue with my flip top fuel tank it sprays fuel from the flip top what can I do to solve this other than a new or zip tie it down.

Hi Guys this thread is a master stroke. Just got my lancia delta back up and running not using the original engine but a changed 15. not sure on make but it runs. Does anyone else not run on grass? It runs great on gravel and tarmac. However it does appear slow. could it be the slipper clutch if so what do I need to buy? I will try to upload a video.
