My G2 makes a horrible racket. Please help
I bought a non running 1989 Yamaha G2a. I replaced the solenoid and it starts and runs but... It sounds like crap. Sounds like metal to metal scraping and clanking. I took off the drive belt and started it again and it sounds the same. I can't see anything wrong but I'm sure this is not normal. Can anyone help me? Thanks

Re: My G2 makes a horrible racket. Please help
can you take a video and upload it to youtube? It could be your primary drive clutch or could be your cooling fan. has to be one or the other

Re: My G2 makes a horrible racket. Please help
If the bushing is gone in the Primary-Clutch,they rattle pretty bad.Grab the clutch(engine off!!)rock the sliding-sheave up/down.If it rocks,the bushing is bad.Next,rock the clutch back and forth(clockwise/counter-clockwise)If its' noisy,the weights,or rollers are loose and need a rebuild or a new clutch.Hope this helps.

I just went thru same thing. Sounded crazy but now I know what happened. Seized. Won't turn at all now. So I hope a top end rebuild is all I need. Tear her down today an see what's up in there? Thanks for your post.
