Replacing clutch and found this mess. Does not appear to be clutch residue, rather, cakes oil sludge. Any ideas how it got this bad? Is this normal after hours of use? What is the best way to clean this mess up.
Also, see worm and spring. The spring was completely loose, not attached to the worm. I assume I just need to replace the worm with a new one?
Any input would be appreciated before I dive into this mess!
Thanks!

I would try a leak test just to be sure the crank seal is not leaking. A leaky oil seal over time will attract dirt and grime.Replacing clutch and found this mess.
