Re: 120 Force Wont crank

Seems to me that a mistimed engine would still crank at speed until it fired, and then make a lot of noise. The problem here is a slow crank, so either the starter isn't turning hard enough or the flywheel takes an undo amount of force to turn. Have you looked for an exhaust restriction? If the exhaust can't get out, you basically have a four cylinder compressor.
