Just click, good battery, split he old Starter in half Litterly torn the case right off it, New starter still just CLICK.

Tried to spin the motor with the crank pullly, wont go. Parked it thursday after work it was fine, friday morning NOTHING.

Anyone want to by this peice of crap?? Maybe I should have just gotten a mustang for pete sakes, Ive had nothing but issues with this and every other Camaro Ive ever had.

I dont really want to try to start it anymore, something is tied up, thats what cracked the old starter, trying to start it to much. Its a 140$ starter that I didnt have the money for and I dont know if Ima gonna get my core back now.

I,m just so pissed at this thing right now I just want to quit the hobby and go do something else.

i didnot say try to start it, i ment to try to turn the crank with no compression in the cylenders

So what your thinking is Ive flooded it to the point where the fuel in the combustion chamber wont let it turn over?? And pulling the Plugs and turning it by hand will let this releive itself.

Just tell me what your thinking, dont tell me to do somthing without telling me why.

What that should allow you to do is take the compression out of the cylinder and free it up...
Thats what his point is behind it...

if you have a possibly bad head gasket sometimes coolant will leak into the cylender and being that you cant compress a liquid it may be hydrolocked, its also a good way to check the condition of plugs to see whats going on in the cylenders

that too
just to rule out that the rotating assembly is not frozen but i would also check the flywheel out too

I can turn mine with a normal size socket... lol just gotta put some muscle into it lol.

I just put new plugs in a week ago and the motor was rebuilt not more than two months ago. I will get in up in the air tommarrow and try to rotate the bastard again taking some plugs out. Do a search on my name and post started by me to get a history on this car, it will help you understand what I,m talking about when I say I,m fed up.

Undid a few spark plugs nothin came out, tried to pull in forward in Gear with my truck it drug the back wheels. Tried to start it, it tried to turn when POOF then Click.

Now there is water in front of the throttle body butterflies.

Got to be a head gasket or something. Anyone got any C-4 so I can fix this.

Ok now I,m confused. Its sat for a few days now, just for kicks I tried to turn it over and it started, the starter sorta growned a little but then it took off. Could the old starter have been bad, and it the process of trying to start it, flooded it to the point of hydrolocking i with GAS?? Now its evaporated and starts ok??

The other thing is the morning it didnt start we had a tremendous downpour of rain and some got somewhere is shouldnt have been??
