STARTING SYSTEM
Turn the gear shaft assembly (1) by holding the
overrunning clutch (2). The gear shaft assembly should
turn only clockwise.
If the clutch turns freely in both directions or if it does
not turn at all, replace the overrunning clutch.
Check the pinion gear teeth for wear and damage and
replace if necessary.
If the pinion gear is worn or damaged, the flywheel ring
gear must be inspected.
