Battery is spanking new and so is the petrol. Crankshaft will only rock giving approximately 5 millimetres oar movement on the pistons as viewed through the sparkplug hole.
Due to a injury at work and long recovery my pan european was parked up and not drained down (as recommended when standing idle for any length of time). Now that I am able to get back on her, she won't turn over, just clicks as the starter locks, the engine rocks when I put a socket and bar on the crankshaft bolt and I can feel piston movrment, the cams also rock. Any ideas before I end up stripping her down???. Thanks for your help.
