:First, we are talking about a 200 I6b with a C4.

:The torque converter has the flex plate as part of it and attaches to the engine with another plate. and nuts. No bolts between the engine and tranny.

What I feel you should do at this point is remove the starter, and first, as stated earlier, try a prybar on the flywheel. just dont pry to hard. If that isnt the problem, try ground hopping that starter. IE: Hook a pair of Jumper cables to a good battery, on the other end ground the black wire to the starter casing, and hold your foot on the starter as u touch the red lead of the jumper cables to the hot post of the starter. If the starter doesnt jump and hum, its bad!!
:I tried to start the engine with out spart plugs.
:
:I pulled off the valve cover and since it has a non adjustable drive train, I puleed the rods to make sure none of them were mis alligned or anything. Tried to start the engine again.
:
:I have not tried to start the engine with out the distributor attached, nor did I try to turn the engine by hand before it was in the car. No luck with a breaker bar now.

:What should I do next?
