You definately have catastrophic engine damage on your hands. These are not interferance motors, so you can rule out valves causing this problem. If you can only rotate the motor so far one way and another, then you probably threw a connecting rod. Go look in your haynes manual to see what that is.

A little background on how this car was running before would help. Did it ever run? Or did you get the car like this?

damn negative negative.

Well it COULD be a seize but not necessarily. For all we know hes got the car in gear with the parking break on. Think of the little things "i hate hacks". You gotta remember everyone in here inst a master toyo tech. Fighting compression shouldnt be that difficult. But ya never know, if hes not that strong, a compression stroke could be hard to fight.
