Sup guys, just got an 89 EF hatch a couple weeks ago and finally was able to find time to get the damn crankshaft bolt today. I got this car for less than 1k off craigslist but it didn't run - mechanic said that the timing slipped. I changed the timing belt and water pump and aligned it TDC (I hope), but it still won't turn over. I'm not sure if this is the section to get mechanic advice so that's enough of me. I'm looking forward to be apart of this community! Here's some pics from today/when I first got it.
Right after I got it towed.
Gave her a lil TLC (I was too tired to do the wheels..)

Amazing what a 3 ft pipe can do.
Random engine picture. My placement of things might make you cringe, don't shoot me.
