My 748s destroyed its engine at 4300 miles when a grub screw came out of the crank, it was rebuilt under waranty and has been perfect for the last 10,000 miles.

Lots of service history is required and do not take any risks with the cambelts. A full service at 6000 miles would/may not have inluded the belts.

If you are in any doubt about the history of the belts have them replaced.

The clutch may just need stripping and cleaning, there are loads of threads about the clutch on here.

I change the oil and filter every 3000 miles

Enjoy:boun cy:
