I have a t140 engine that won't turn. It was running fine, then it stopped, thunk.
Here is the weird part. The rods and crank seem ok. The cams don't seem to be damaged. I pulled the cylinders off- pistons are fine. The transmisson will change gears. So I figured the clutch is froze so I pulled the primary cover off and took out the clutch plates. Still won't move.
Any ideas?

Did you pull the timing side cover off to check if anything is amiss in the cam gears (broken tooth, etc)? Also, the alternator may have frozen up, but that's pretty far fetched. Or, maybe it's seized a bearing.

Just the wisdom of a fool speaking: Jim
