Kevin,

I have a 90 as well and have experienced the warm transmission phenomenon
when my new centerforce clutch was not seating properly.  The dealer did not
resurface the fly wheel and the clutch was only gripping in about a 1/4 inch
ring around the clutch disk.  It was generating a lot of heat (at least I
think this was the cause).  Is your clutch slipping at all or getting a bit
old and worn?
