wat ever u do dont force things round turn the cam 1/4 out get the cranck into postion then put the cam into postion. wat is happening the piston is touching the valves so it wont turn. always remember when you have put the cam belt on turn the engine by hand to check that the valves don't touch

what do you mean turn the engine by hand?

turn the crankshaft 360 degrees and make sure it doesnt touch????
