Kiev 4a film advance problem

So, I load up a Kiev 4a for the FSU photo contest for May, and discover a film advance issue. (at least it wasn't a shutter issue.) the clutch for the camera's film take-up spool slips too much and does not properly/effectively roll up the film that is driven across the film gate by the film sprocket drive gear. Is there a way of tightening up the clutch slipping action? Thanks in advance!
