Here is what you get with a "starter clutch" set

[Guest]

The photo below is what you get when you order the Suzuki OEM "Set, Starter Clutch". You do not get the face plate, the bearing(s), or anything else.

This photo is actually my old pins, rollers and springs because I did not want to take mine out of the plastic bag until I understand how they go together.

If anyone has any tips and tricks, please let me know. Do I need to put grease on these parts or will the motor oil sloshing about be enough?



Just wanted you to know what you get. I ordered a thrust washer and new bearing, neither are pictured.

No grease necessary.

Put the little spring into the hole in the end of the little pin.
Slide the spring/pin assembly into the small hole in the side of the large indents in the piece on the right of your picture.
Push the pin in, against the spring, put the roller in with the round side against the pin/spring.
Repeat for the other two units.
Place the hub of the sprocket against the rollers, rotate so you will push the rollers into the springs, the hub will fall into place.
There should be three bolts to hold everything together.

This picture should help some:

It's a simply roller type one way clutch set-up........

One way the rollers bind, and stop rotation, and the other way they free-wheel

Hi, OK, I have a dumb question.

After I get the rollers, pins and springs in place and put it on the hub, there is no clearance through the hub to feed the three hex screws to hold it to the rotor. I must be missing something.

Please let me know if you can help.

Thanks!

I got it done tonight. I did as you said but I bolted the starter clutch on the rotor first, before the hub (every time I tried another way, pins and springs went flying). Then the gear hub slipped on easily. She started right up. I'm happy for now. Just waiting to see what is on the ground in the morning as I have one stripped thread on my crank case which receives a stator cover bolt... Also I could not get my expensive craftsman torque wrench to work so I faked it. Also used Blue locktite on the rotor nut instead of red. I hope I don't have to open it up again but at least next time I will know a bit more how she works.

Thanks for your help,
