    Put the Buick in first gear, hold down the clutch, have someone push your car, then pop the clutch. That is how many cars were started. Put a mark on the crankshaft pulley and see if it moved.

    Jerry, You took the head off. Can this be done without taking the head off, and just lifting the engine by the rocker arm shaft? That is scary. It is hollow so the oil can navigate.
