chris3000v6 Posted June 17, 2013 Share Posted June 17, 2013 Hi guys. I wanted know if anybody could help me out. I have a mazda b3000 v6. Witch is esentualy a Ford ranger pick up truck. The thing won't start. The starter does not swing the motor. Seems like it might have too much compression? If I rock the truck back and forth with it in gear it moves the motor. But won't spin with the starter. What could be causing this? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jeebowhite Posted June 17, 2013 Share Posted June 17, 2013 not a seized motor is it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chris3000v6 Posted June 17, 2013 Author Share Posted June 17, 2013 I don't think its siezed. If I put it in gear and push it I can get the motor to turn. I took the spark plugs out and turn the motor to a point then it stops there. Like it gets stuck Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jeebowhite Posted June 17, 2013 Share Posted June 17, 2013 I would be considering crank shaft or similar as its turning so far to be honest, either that, or something in the gearbox / drive shaft might have seperated causing the so far bump but then cease to move further.
