Damn, just got this Odyssey and was all excited to take it out today.
Its slow as dogshit, made it to the end of the street and turned around. Sounds like the engine is running full speed (seems like its hitting a rev limiter) but the CVT is not adjusted properly. When I jack the rear end up I can get the tires to spin fast, but it seems like it takes a while to get there. I can see the CVT Clutches working, but I don't think the front clutch is adjusted properly or something.
What I have noticed is that the belt does not ride all the way up on the engine clutch, it gets to about 1/4 from the top and doesn't go up any further. Also when its idle there is about a .25" clearance between the belt and the clutch plates. Seems like too much but I am no expert.
The clutch is a Powerbloc, Mikuni carb, V-Force 3 Reeds, gravity fed no fuel pump. Not sure on the belt brand, I can find no markings.
Can anyone provide any insite?
Thanks!
