My take on the clutch troubles is when the air gap gets too wide the clutch slips a small( probably unnoticed) amount, makes extra heat, raises the resistance, heats up the wiring as well as the epoxy on the clutch coil itself and before you know it the wiring, connections, and coil are all comprised. I’ve seen new clutch assemblies put on and fail a short time later just because the gap was never adjusted. I know you didn’t ask my opinion but there it is
