HELP- 4age question - Toyota Nation Forum : Toyota Car and Truck Forums

i just took my 4age out of mr2 and changed the clutch. then i put it back in and the engine wont turn over!!!!! the clutch is on right and the tranny moves freely but no matter what i try ( torque arm on the crank pully, using the starter) that thing just wont move!!!!! i need help. ive come to the conclusion that theres either somehow something jammed up in the flywheel or the engine magically seized itself!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! btw its full of fresh oil and hasnt been driven since i started this job. any info from anyone who would know what could cause this is MUCH appreciated!!!

When you try to turn the car over do you hear anything at all? Starter relay click etc? Did you double check to make sure you got all the wiring stuff back in right?

I know on MkIIs it's not uncommon to have similar problems after a clutch job if the ground didn't get reattached correctly.

did you remember to put the throwout bearing in?

haha, i've done that one before.....

^^ Man that would suck to discover after buttoning everything up.

it could be possible that the clutch disc is on upside down, but i don't think it would stop the engine from cranking.
