My trooper after driving around for a bit eventually starts lurching and dies. me and a friend who knows more than the average human about cars said that because the engine stops choking and gasping when he lets out the clutch that something is causing my clutch to slip when it heats up. I just replaced the clutch when I overhalued the engine and it has been driven 29 miles since then. He said it could be because I did not clean the flywheel friction face before I installed the clutch. Is this true? and if so what do I do about it? (The flywheel friction plate had surface rust on it.) Thanks Kevin
