This is my first thread, please point me in the right direction if I'm posting in the wrong place. Forgot timing chain was OFF, rolled engine over by (4) hands (buddy and me) kinda forcefully to try and get the 3 torque converter bolts off. When it STOPPED turning over, it dawned on me that something bad was happening... Do you guys think 4 hands from 138lb guys could bend valves? Our hands don't get that much grip so I'm hoping it'll be okay. Also, would we be able to see bent valves or valve problems with valve cover off?
BTW, everything was left at top dead center long before we rolled the engine by hand. Not sure if that makes a difference.
The purpose was to replace all the $140 in seals including front and rear because my M20 was leaking a quart per week. Also, any ideas on how to re-attach transmission to engine without mangling front trans seal?
This is my first engine pull :/
