Got my engine on the stand with heads on. When turning the engine over by hand, I am getting a little binding that I think is coming from the dizzy. It also wants to lift out of the hole by about a 1/4 inch. The hold down is tight. What could this be? I am turning the motor clock wise as I face the fan.

Could be the drive gear on the crank got banged up during the process, or that the washer is missing, or the distributor's not clamped down.
With a good flashlight you can see the drive gear from above. The Cap'n |

Washer is in there, I flipped the motor upside down an pulled out the gear, and verified the washer is there. Paranoid about droping it into the case. |
