Does the front keyway on the crankshaft point up when the crank is at TDC? I have a 1.5 in a Suzuki Samurai, the flywheel used for this swap is marked at TDC but doesn't put the keyway straight up, however on inspection of several 1.6 cranks the keyway is straight up at TDC. Looking at the 1.6 cranks, set like my 1.5, it puts the piston 3/16-1/8 inch down the hole.
I got the motor from the jy and the guy said it hadn't been ran in 3 years. I filled up the filter with ATF and ran it. Doesn't like to rev, won't idle no matter what I do, is hard starting even warmed up, and has no power. Any help would be appreciated, thanks.
