Farmall Cub Clutch? Chatter

Hi folks. I'm looking to buy a Farmall Cub but don't know a great deal about them. I looked at one today that was in pretty darn good shape. The only problem however was a loud chatter coming from the clutch area. It would do it while idling but would almost become silent with a slight depression of the clutch although you could still feel it knocking a little through the petal. It would remain relatively quiet when put into gear but after a few seconds of riding it would start the chatter again. While idling I could place my hand on the tractor body there at the clutch and feel the clacking. There's a pin that enters the tractor body right there as well (not sure what its purpose is) but I could put my finger on the head of that pin and really feel the clacking there. Any ideas on how serious this may be or how to find out? Thanks everyone!

The last cub clutch I did - I forgot to change the pilot bushing and it chattered like that too. I had the bushing on the bench, so I had to split it again just to put it in . It's quiet as can be now.

Hey Bill, John, I appreciate the quick help. That's good to hear. The clutch was pretty tight, certainly didn't have an inch of play. The owner said that it had just had a throw out bearing put in, so maybe some adjustments are in order. Again, thanks for the help folks.

yup, probably clutch pedal or clutch finger adjustment. The pin is the pivot for the top of the throwout bearing hanger.

It sounds like the throw out bearing (carbon block) is riding sgainst the pressure plate fingers. This could be adjusted, Make sure clutch pedal has free play.
