Thomas - When you say the clutch spins twice, are you talking about the
clutch located near the keyboard?
(I am assuming you have a regular 28ASR or 28KSR with mechanical keyboard
and not a Compact 28KSR with electrical keyboard.)
If it is the clutch near the keyboard then, as Ethan says, the problem is
probably with the repeat/reset mechanism -
Or it could be with the clutch stop lever. Description of the operation is
here -

The adjustments info is at
http://www.navy-radio.com/manuals/tty/573-116-700-6604.pdf
possible trouble areas are at pages 8, 14, and 16
Good luck!
