If the clutch doesn't move freely in only one direction, it's bad.
From the book:
1. If still installed, remove the starter gear from the backside of the alternator rotor.
2. Hold onto the center of the rotor with a 36mm offset wrench.
3. Remove the Allen bolts securing the starter clutch assembly to the backside of the rotor.
4. Separate the starter clutch one-way clutch and bracket from the rotor.
5. Install a new one-way clutch with the flange side going on first.
6. Install the bracket and turn the assembly over.
7 Apply red Loctite Threadlocker (No. 271) to the Allen bolt threads prior to installation.
8. Use the same tool setup used for removal to hold the alternator rotor stationary while tightening the bolts. Tighten the Allen bolts in a crisscross pattern to the torque specs listed in Table 2.
Alternator rotor bolt 101-115.5 ft.-lb.
Starter clutch Allen bolt 16.5-20 ft.- lb.
