I recently purchased a 1973 2.0L that I am in the process of restoring. According to the previous owner the engine hasn't run in 5 years. I drained the oil which looked OK. The other day I dropped the engine out and was going to take a look at it. My question relates to if the motor is ceased. I am able to turn the fan clockwise and counter-clockwise but only about 180 degrees. Is that normal? I am not a mechanic so I have no idea. What other things can I do or verify that the engine is good? For example, pull the heads? I will take the valve covers off today and post some pics. Thanks in advance for the advice.
