i know about the pin on the bottom of the crank. it was in there and before i put in the nut on the crank, you can see the pin in tack to the guide.
what to dooooo?  |
Clk500kid,
Did you resolve this problem? I am having similar problem with crankshaft getting stuck(will not rotate past 20 or 10 degree) after setting my dowel marks using 4mm drills and crank at BTDC of 30 deg. My car is m104, 1993, 300E, 3.2L I am afraid to crank it with ignition switch if I have pistons and valves interference. I don't want to destroy this engine.....it is in excellent condition when I changed head gasket. I wish there was somebody out there who could help with this issue because I have read everything and followed every advise I got from this forum but I can not seem to figure out how to get crank rotation without valve & piston interference. Could you update me if you have figured this problem? Thanks
