My 83 SD is not timing right?
I took the valve cover off, and i alligned the timing slot on the chain, but i cannot turn the engine by hand. it seems that the chain is stuck. it turns 10-20 degrees either way, but she's not loose to go around. im thinking maybe the chain gets stuck at the bottom. any ideas?

yes. With the chain in place, its binding. It's not going either way. it only moves a few degrees left and a few degrees right. and then it clicks and i don't want to force it or use the starter.

what do you mean by the ears? nothing broke i didn't force anything. All i did was take the wheel off and move the chain around a little bit with the tensioner out. and then i put the chain back and the wheel back on top. but the engine is not turning, i tried it with the tensioner in and out and it still doesn't move. now what
