Engine turning over issues
Ok, so i finally got my 2 litre into my bus, WOOH WHOOO!!!! ok any how got everything hooked up and pretty looking put in a battery got in the car tryed starting it, starter just clicked, figured battery was dead so i pulled the one out of my toyota that runs, used that battery still just clicks, now i am curious if either my batterys are crap or if my starter is, i noticed that among all the clicking and me cursing that the degree pulley turned a good 90 degrees after a while, i keep thinking that my starter is dead and i am wondering if i should just buy a brand new hi torque one that will turn the engine over even if it does stick at TDC for some really odd reason (if any one can suggest why it sticks there it would be greatly appreciated if they could help me) any suggestions on this dellima?? thanks allot

Can you turn the engine over by hand, all the way around for at least 2 revolutions? If so I would think about the starter, if not, time to pull the engine back out and find out what is hitting what inside.

I can turn it all the way over but at both TDC's it is fairly hard to get it passes 0 degrees, it seems to stick really bad, but with enough force it will pass and continue to turn over like normal (this is all by hand)

No rebuiild, engine is a pick an pull special out of a carBQ and it has compression so my hopes are that it is still good, after thinkin about it an talkin to my friend, im thinkin it is just gummed up on that one part and that after my oil gets to it and after i get a good battery in there, i think she will be happy and turn over better

Ive had this
I had a semilar problem with my typ1 engine, I just put some oil down the cyliders just to be sure, then I worked it in and now it rotates freely, I would either guess that or its just compression holding you back wich is a good thing, try to work up momentum wihile doing that and see if it keeps turning, if halts and you try to crank it but the belt slips or it just simply will not go then you gotta pull that engine out. Good luck and hope this helps

Update to engine issues
Ok, I took the engine BACK out of my bus and disconected the flywheel, i was easily able to turn the engine over with the belt, i put the fly wheel back on and torqued the 5 bolts to 50 lbs, by the way does any one know exactly what i should be torquing those bolts to?? With the flywheel on at 50lbs the engine would not turn over by hand aqnd my stock starter would not turn it over either, now I have been racking my brain trying to figure out what could be causing this. Does any one know, any one else ever experience this. If i put 2 bolts on the fly wheel and have them very loose its easy to turn over as well. HELP!?!?! thanks allot
