z32 n/a wont crank over feels locked up but turns back wards

[ozyeclipse]

I was working on my z yesterday I was installing injector #2
Using the dremel method and got it done and tight

After that I tried cranking the car over and it did for about 2 seconds
Made a big pop and just quit

Now I've tried turning the motor manually and it feels impossible to turn it clockwise

But when you turn it counterclockwise it turns just fine but if you switch directions again it turns for abour 1/8 of a turn the just gets stuck feeling like it locks up
U can still turn it counterclockwise normally

Only if you cranks it,it just goes clicks more like a big clank brand new battery and terminals btw

Also timing belt was changed 5 months ago everything was fine before the injector not working at .001 ohm

Could my timing belt jumped and a valve get stuck open while the cilynder rises making it get stuck

Thanks from a new member ****

Check the starter to make sure its not seized on the flywheel/flexplate.

Check the starter to make sure its not seized on the flywheel/flexplate.

In addition to that, while you have the start off try turning the engine over by hand and see if anything changed.

Will do first thing in the morning
Lol freaking hailing today weather's so messed up here

[ozyeclipse]

So its my starter i took it off and it worked fine though
But when I put it back in it turns for a lil bit then quits again and locks up

Does that mean I need a new one or is my flywheel loose ?? Doesn't move or jiggle or anything unless I turn the motor normally....damm this sucks

Take it to an autoparts place and have them test it. If all it was is just a starter, consider yourself lucky.

i relieved the fuel presure before installing the injector lubed it and all
but could it be possible its hydrolocking if the bottom oring got messed up on the process ??

[nissanfreak12]

Have you tried to remove all the spark plugs then turn it by hand? If it was hydrolocking, this will relieve the pressure and you will have you answer.

Alright thanks guys I took everything off this morning but still no luck I'm just gona take the entire thing apart now timing cover and plenum
thanks for the help guys

Ouch, sucks. Sounds like it may be hydrolocked. I hope you didn't pinch an O-ring.

[ozyeclipse]

Yeah I think that's what happened :/

[DCaff300ZX]

Not so sure it would go backwards or forward if it was hydrolocked, the fluid locks any piston movement as I found when I got into a surprise deep puddle awhile back...anyway, take the spark plugs out and put down some old bath towels over the plug holes, then remove your ignition fuse before cranking the engine by hand, then if it rotates, slowly a rotate it a quick click or two by starter to push any fluid out the spark plug holes. Your engine will rotate only at starter speed with the plugs out so don't worry about too much rotation speed, just be sure it moves by hand first before using the starter.

what about timing belt?
