Can't be driving fine when you are only using two finger on the disk. The ring could be setting at an angle with the disks stuck in grooves in the guides. Or could be broken pin on clutch disk. If the other two are sticking above the drive plate when the collier is pulled back, then there are issues that need to be addressed. You are only using 2/3rds of you ring.
I know the voices aren't real but damn they have some good ideas! :shock:
