CLUTCH/GEAR

wheel and attempt to rotate the starter clutch gear
clockwise. It should lock up to the rotor/flywheel.
Rotate the gear counterclockwise and it should
turn freely. If it moves or locks up both ways, the
starter clutch must be replaced.
2. Inspect the starter clutch gear for chipped or miss-
ing teeth or discoloration/scoring of the clutch sur-
face. Inspect the bearing for loose, worn, or
discolored rollers. If bearing is damaged, it must
be replaced.
