200 Starter woe MORE

[Suffolk GameServer LAN]

thanks to the serval replies I gotten about the starter woe.
The crank wheel won't spin with a 27MM socket CW & CCW.  Even with the plugs
out (today)
One last look tomorrow before the tow.
Snipet of some reply background info................for those watching:

>I'll pop the starter out.  But the car is off the ramps and (WORK ROOM)
clearance is an issue now.
>The five plugs were taken out (hydra lock thought) and it still won't turn
over by 27MM socket and wrench CW or CCW.

>Convinced timing belt or woodruff key issue.  'Will know tomorrow.  ( work
a little a day)
>Lower t-belt cover plug a hassle to get to.  Need to move IC and get to
lower (IC) intake hose clamp- PITA!

>Only bright spot today was the starting and idle of my 4000Q w/400K after
sitting for 13 months!
The fan even cycled on! Yippie!
>My brother filed the cap and rotor contacts to get it going.  New cap and
rotor going in.
>Guess what I'll be road testing next?  The mice are running for cover!

Is it possible that the starter gear is jammed against
the flywheel gear?  Maybe the starter is cocked
slightly?  Just guessing, but SOMETHING is obviously
jamming your crankshaft.
