Default Re: How tight should a rebuilt engine be?

Most of the responses did not focus on "hand cranking". Yes, that will be a bit testy for awhile. Even removing the plugs will be a little tight to break it loose BUT then should turn with a bit of effort until you stop. Then you need to break it loose again. It shouldn't take much running/driving time before it becomes relatively easy to hand crank.
