I just replaced the oil pan gasket, front crank seal, cam seal, intermediate seal, etc. After getting everything back together with all timing marks aligned, the crankshaft will not continuously turn in one direction. I can go through a revolution or two turning the crankshaft either direction and it hits a stop. Am I hitting a valve? The crankshaft nut was a PITA to remove and things might have slipped out of proper timing location...Could I have turned the shaft too far when removing that nut. The shaft slipped and turned a couple of times for sure when I was pushing my 250 ft-lbs to get that nut off. Any thoughts? I'm getting queasy thinking about it!  |

Line up the crank dampener marks so that the #1 cylinder is at tdc. Both cam lobes on the #1 cylinder should be pointing down. (you may have to turn the crank 360 degrees for this to happen but it should line up.)

Timing chain and tensioner issues. |

I removed the valve cover and verified all of the exhaust and intake valves are moving properly. All timing marks aligned, I can only turn the crankshaft about a full rotation before it is completely stopped, both directions. I suppose the only thing to do is remove the head to see what is going on and take it from there.  |

Is this with the spark plugs installed? What happens when you try to turn it with the plugs removed? |

No plugs installed....I think it is an exhaust valve that is broken...can't get the exhaust manifold off. Correction, it will not rotate a full 360 degrees.......... |
