Post subject:  Can't crank it over
I just did my lifters and t-belt. After letting the tensioner do its thing for 30min I tried to manually crank it over with 17mm wrench and it's giving me a tough time. I have done it that way before several times and it never gave me such a hard time. I decided not to put all my weight into just incase one of my valves are out of whack and are hitting the piston.
If I try to go counterclockwise it will move freely....could I have just gotten weak and can't crank it over the compression stroke?
SOMEONE REASSURE MY BABY IS OK!!! :oops:

U probably have a pump up lifter(air)
Need to remove the lifter and manually bleed it.

If I can spin over a 468 cube engine with a cheap ratchet, you should be able to crank that little 4 popper over using your fingers.

You could try taking out your pushrods (closing all the valves) and then try spinning it over, then you'll know if it's the valves.

Um...These engines dont have pushrods...hence the lifters...
