Timing Belt Failure. Motor will no longer rotate freely. I have removed cylinder head and the I/E manifold(s),and affiliates, as well as starter... Still no movement. Rocked back and forth with no issues before timing belt failure. Now it won't budge in any gear, neutral, or reverse.
Any advice or knowledge on the issue would be much appreciated. Because currently I am just taking apart the engine piece by piece trying to find the culprit. My thought is that if i can get the engine to move freely again I can start to put it back together and time the engine from TDC.
What could possibly have me hung up, Oil pump? All advice considered thank you! 1800cc engine

Re: Timing Belt Failure
crankshaft is likely wedged against the auxillary shaft. Turn the crankshaft backwards, then rotate the auxillary shaft. How many valves are bent?
