Breather tube on my 6.5 hp Tecumseh LV195EA cracked and was blowing oil. Simple enough fix except I broke the flywheel removing it. Bought a breather rebuild kit and another flywheel. Reassembled everything tonight and did a test pull with the sparkplug wire disconnected.
Expected a quiet pull with compression resitance. Instead I hear a clicking noise as the crankshaft turns.
Removed everything back down to the flywheel. The engine clicks all the way around with a slightly louder click as the magnets align with the ingition module. The clicking happens if the crackshaft/blade is rotated in a clockwise direction. Silent if moved in counter clockwise, but will eventually stick/freeze. Also removed the muffler and can see what I assume is the exhaust valve stem moving which seems to indicate that camshaft is meshing with the drive shaft
Is there a real problem like crankshaft slipped down a bit and now not fully meshing properly with the camshaft? Or am I just being gun shy after blowing up the flywheel.
