UPDATE: I think i got it figured out. guess i wasnt fully disengaged from reverse. now i can move the sprocket and everything moves like it should.
can i fully assemble the whole motor and slide it in the engine or do i have to install the jug and head on the motor after the bottom end is bolted in the frame?
also there isnt 2 washers behind the basket but it works now so is that okay? it just has that sleeve.
