Ok so i picked up a truck that had rolled over for its wheels and tires and other parts that were still ok and i just had a wild hair of " hey i wonder if i can get this sucker running" so i went to just try and crank this thing and didnt have any luck so i put a known good battery on it still no crank so i put a socket and rachet on the crank bolt to try by hand keep in mind no spark plugs were in this whole time still no crank
Motor ran up til rollover and has sat since please give me something to look for first before i start just ripping this thing apart to find out WTF is causing no crank
The trans/transfer case is still attached

spray some penetrating lube in the cylinders and let it sit...then get on it with the breaker bar again

Found that the "running" engine was not so much a running engine because it had a connecting rod that looked like a dam question mark
Removed bent rod and rotating *** moves like butter with 7 pistons pumping

Sounds like it's suitable for being made into garage art.
