It sorta makes sense.

So is this one a 1.3?

Sounds like the clutch may just need adjusting up a bit.

As for the carb, if it is a 1.3 the carbs probably knackered. First thing i do is bin the standard carb.

I think he is trying to say

He is towing his 410 off roader using his 413

I had to tow a ldv van sort or side ways as it couldn't be towed backwards as it was stuck in a wierd place facing downhill a bit
but it didn't work the first time as my clutch was smoking a bit but then jacked up the ldv van and placed some scaffolding boards under the wheels and the.mighty 410 towed it out

Sounds knackered. Try adjusting it up.

If its definately the clutch smoking i'd take the gear box out and see whats going on before anything geta too badly damaged.
