are you dumping oil onto the clutch from bad seals?

That would suck. I think thats it though. I bet the rear main and / or mainshaft seals are spewing all over it.

i changed the seal when i put it in so i don't think it's that and i got the stupid self adjusting cable and the clutch was a brand new flywheel lightened by germanautoparts.com
