Title: Locked up engine?
Post by SavageMan99 on 04/22/19 at 20:18:46

I believe my engine may be locked up.
It's been about 5 years since it ean.
I put a timing chain and tensioner in it last year.
I finally tried to start it, and it wont turn.
Is it possible I timed it wrong and a valve is hitting the piston?

did you have the stator cover off?

if you did, you probably put the washer back in the wrong spot.

Yes, and likely did.
Thank you. ;)

Wouldn't be a bad idea to clean up around the plug, pull it, and use fogging oil in the cylinder if it's been five years.
