Remove the starter and use a pry bar against starter ring gear teeth. Front pulley crank bolt does not give you enough leverage.
I have an 81 300D I bought with a locked engine, Saw no reason for it.. finally pulled the head... all looked OK.. pulled starter, got some real leverage in both directions... finally got movement, in 4 cylinders.... #1 piston did not move... hmmmmm... Pulled accessories off the engine, removed alternator.... and boom... part of the block missing... rod journal made a hole... Further investigation found, woman owner managed to break the oil pressure gage line, Drove it till it had ZERO oil... it threw a rod... They put oil in it... which looked "old" and full.... Nice car, perfect in every way, 102K miles... dead engine... Your issues may be different... On Sun, Sep 29, 2019 at 3:19 PM Kaleb C.
