Yamaha Breeze Starter vs Starter Clutch
1999 Yamaha Breeze Starter vs Starter Clutch.
I just bought my daughter a 99 Breeze. It starts and runs great. However, sometimes, when it is turned off and she tries to restart, the starter will spin but not engage. If I tap the starter with a hammer, it seems to engage. One person told the bendix may be sticking. Another person told me there is no bendix because the starter is always engaged. So I am confused. I do not know if it needs a new starter or starter clutch. If it works when I tap the starter with a hammer, I tend to think it is the starter. Any thoughts or help would be appreciated.
I am a novice mechanic. So, if it is the starter clutch, is this difficult to change?
THANKS
