    The motor turned over fine when I did the compression test before I bought it. That’s why I’m baffled. I think the jam is due to me turning the motor upside down and balancing the motor on the 2×4’s via the flywheel. I’ve worked on 2 other 1970"s 6 hp OMC motors and understand it might be the driveshaft spines stuck in the crankshaft. Now I’m goona brave the weather outside and check it out further. I’ll keep you posted.
