In Reply To I rotated the passenger side, and according to the write-up posted by NisVG 30 DE TT on June 17, 2006 at 09:41 PM
     
Message rotation that way. Couple of things come to mind:

If you had the plugs out, it makes it easy to turn the crank, so the crank could turn a little like wilkendw said.

It's not easy to turn the cams, so it would be tough to FEEL if you hit anything during rotation.

That said, I hope wilk was right in saying that maybe the piston moved a little to prevent a valve from breaking. If you rotate the crank, it's obvious if you're hitting a valve.

Did the teeth count check out?
