bad news
Ok I had to rotate it with the key because it just kept springing back when I tried to rotate it with a wrench. Direction of rotation clockwise facing the radiator does the failure to rotate indicate a timing chain tensioner problem?
I find it hard to believe but with the cam shaft lined up the crank shaft is at 15 degrees. The timing chain guides look brand new I am going to rotate it several more times to see that I come up with the same results. I guess he could have replaced timing chain guides and not the chain. The car runs like it is badly out of time till high RPM. 15 degrees off and it runs guess it is not even safe to start again with that amount of stretch let alone drive around the neighbor hood.
Thanks for your help I will let you know what I finally find out.
