Help... Engine won't turn over
I recently picked up a 2002 Polaris Virage on a bartering deal. The previous owner stated it will need a new starter. Before I ran out to purchase a starter I for some reason decided to see if the starter may have been locked up or something. The starter seemed to engage at one point, but the battery was low. So I removed the cover where the flywheel and starter gears are. I wasn't able to turn the fly wheel manually at all, even with pressure. Noticed the starter was still engaged, so I was able to disengage to the starter from the flywheel. I removed the spark plugs. and the flywheel now turns freely from (based on a clock) 12:00 to the 2:30 back and forth. One piston moves while the other does not.
Q; Is this normal or should the flywheel turn easily 360 degrees.
