Re: Hi and help me
so i guess its worse then i thought, had a mechanic check it out, he checked all my wires perfect voltage EVERYWHERE.....

starter checked out good. ignition good. coils good, wires good, relays good, he even changed them. but now im in a pickle, he tried turning the motor over by hand and it won't budge, he brought out some big metal bar looking thing and put it on the round thing on the motor, and he could barely get it to turn over.
what does that mean? he won't tell me he says bring it to my shop and i'll print you out a paper regarding my price and labor.
now what do i do, the stupid craigslist seller will NOT answer his phone, and when i beat on his door he won't answer it.
i swear i never hurt the car, i just wanted it home, all it had was insurance on it and no plates, so obviously i wouldnt be fooling around.

Re: Hi and help me
If thats the case I'd get my cash back. He was trying to turn the crank by hand via the crank pulley. It seems to be locked up.
Was it a DOHC (duel overhead cam)? The motor will have to be rebuilt/replaced so if its a DOHC prepare to hand over a good amount of cash. The SOHC (single overhead cam) will still cost a decent amount but not as much.
I dont know actually. There is ALOT.
Was the timing belt still intact? If so it might have jumped a tooth or two. If thats the case your valves could be hitting your pistons. But if he forced it to turn he could have just bent your valves >.>
