ripemeat Posted January 6, 2013 Share Posted January 6, 2013 another thing just noticed the engine stand i have it on some of the bolts are against the fly wheel is that causeing it not to be able to spin? is this a question? it should be pretty clear if the flywheel is hitting something when you turn the crank.
