If it spins freely when you try to start it. You can remove it, clean it and clean the shaft with denatured alcohol. If it works, you're in luck. They all oil up from time to time.
If it doesn't work, or quits pretty soon, it's worn out.
Be careful putting it back. Some of them will also fit backwards. Just make note of how it came out.
 
took out sprayed wd40 got good n clean put back in it started up its alive its alive. got through the first half tank of fuel run up to around 230 shut down to get fuel n let cool down b back at it in a little bit. should i be turning the trans and every thing while is running i dont have the clutch on.
