I looked at it, and I tried to push the car forward. It's free wheeling. But when I pulled it back, it sorts of jam up and locks up completely. Did I fix something wrong? I'm running a front one way if that matters, with a two speed gear box.
Further to the above, I must add that I bought the engine used. I am not sure if the needle settings have changed from factory settings but it's not that easy to start. I am thinking I should revert to factory settings but have no idea what they are. A quick check on the internet and google didn't turn up factory results, just some recommended user settings. Any idea? It's an OS TZ-12 5 port turbo.
what kind of car is it? maybe you have a one way bearing in backwards in the 2-speed?
