i have a 1987 big red and currently the starter (which is brand new) turns the flywheel, but the rotor will not turn. i have removed the side cover and found that the bearing seems to be rolling fine, as are the teeth on the gear. the rotor does not have slack, so i believe the woodruff key is fine. a couple questions that i have:
1. the crankshaft bolt (to install a flywheel puller) is it reverse thread?
2. starter clutch problem?

thanks,
