Starter Drive/Bendix: Testing and Inspection
OVERRUNNING CLUTCH CHECK
1. While holding the clutch housing, rotate the pinion. The drive pinion should rotate smoothly in one direction, but should not rotate in the opposite
direction. If the clutch does not function properly, replace the overrunning clutch assembly.
2. Inspect the pinion for wear or burrs. If the pinion is worn or burred, replace the overrunning clutch assembly. If the pinion is damaged, also inspect
the ring gear for wear or burrs.
