trust me he has a cylinder full of gas it will not allow the engine to turn over.

will see, if he got extra gas into one of the cyl. and the piston is flush agiast it and the valves are closed the engine will not turn over as as a person that has owend and wrench on several different engines i know this can happen, so learn about it before talk about it.

Too many people are posting with not enough info. We need to know, if in fact he can turn the crank by hand, if so at least 720 degrees to complete the cycles. Then go with electrical diagnosis.

i couldnt turn the crank for nothing.....apparently i lost the screw when i rebuilt from a blown head gasket months ago, and it finally decided to fall in on this rebuild..... damn the feather that broke the pony's back....

Whoa, everyone posted at the same time. JUST in case, you may want to check the other head. Besides, you get two head gaskets when you get a valve grinding kit.

luckily the motor only turned a little bit...just enough to squeeze the screw, and the cylinder wall isnt scratched.....
