I just got my d16z6 all put backtogether. heres what ive done to it

New pistons and bearings
Bore out the cylinders
New oil pump
new gaskets

Dumped some oil in it and went to fire it up, It cranked over a few times
Now it wont crank over at all.
I thought it was the alternator belt to tight. Not that.

Then i felt my starter and iot was really warm.
What does this mean??

Are you able to turn the engine counterclockwise from the crank pulley bolt?

Nate Case

i could before. now when i try to turn it it just gets real tight

Sounds like a problem with the engine build. You may need to remove and tear it down again.

Did you measure your bearing clearances? Did you have the p2w clearance done correctly?

Don't be too hard on yourself. Live and learn.

Yea, Found out. there was just a bad ground and map sensor. I can build a motor but not hook it back up right.lol

i use colored zip ties to color code everything before i put it all back together.Just some advice if you decide to do it again sometime

How would this^ prevent the engine from turning?
