Engine is stiff, hard to turn over???

<< < (2/5) > >>

GlennLever:
The Crankshaft is broken, working on getting it out.

New one will have to be balanced. Hopefully the rod and piston weights were recorded.

If need be will pull # 8 rod and piston.

Problem may be the rod if it cannot be saved and new one needs to be ordered. Will also order the narrow bearings

Ouch....
That's not as easy as a trans issue...

dreracecar:
And it did not break clean thru??

JrFuel Hayden:
Is that an OEM crank ?

Paul New:
That will cause it hard to turn! Your going to pull the engine apart to put a crank in it, it will be easy to measure the bob weight at that time of it wasn't recorded
