202 not turning over, possibly seized??

[DANNY8]

We just got another motor in the SKiDWAGON, it's not completely hooked up, just the radiator and leads need to go on, but that shouldn't effect it turning over.

We have a push button start which directly goes to the starter motor, but when we try to turn it over it just makes that noise when ya got a flat battery, when it clicks and thats it. We took the spark plugs out so it didn't have to worry bout compression but still no go.

Any ideas wat it could be? And wat would we have to do if it's seized, pull it down?

The motor was running a few months ago b4 we pulled it out another VH, I even did a qwik skid with it, so it definetely use to run. It's actually not an old motor coz the pistons and head gasket I noticed weren't orginal.

Well for now we're gonna chuck another battery in it to see if that helps, even tho we've used 2 different starter packs, but both are cheapies which don't like turning over a dead flat car.....so hopefully another battery will work.

A mate came around and rekons the torque converter is locked up.

So pulling the motor back out again 2night.

Tried putting it in gear and pushing it? See if the crank pulley turns.
