G1 Rattling Noise On Deceleration / Slower Runs

[lanesharon]

New buggie to me - G1, gas. Runs okay when going uphill or on a smaller incline, but when it goes downhill or I am decelerating, it starts a marble-like rattle.

I did a tune up and put a new oil breather hose in because of a crimp in it. Still getting that problem. I know nothing about buggies, but a little about outboard 2 cycle engines. Based on that knowledge I am thinking this could be a slower speed oil leaning out too much problem. Am I on the right track?

Also, does anyone know where I can get a service manual for this unit?

Marble sound is coming from one of the clutches, check around for loose bolts, replace the oil in the rear axle, but other than that if it is not significant than dont worry about it.
