ka24de doesnt crank

i just rebuilt my 97 ka and put it in my coupe, i decided to try to jump the starter to see if the motor would crank. so i directly connected it to the battery and the starter would click and not turn the flywheel so i replaced the starter with my friends that i know 100% works and it still just clicks i also used a brand new optima red top. when i turn the motor over by hand while connecting the starter and it still doesnt crank it even though i can hear the starter whine, so i know its not in a bind. next i bypassed the harness completely with 2 wires and it still doesnt crank. does anyone know what the hell is causing it not to crank?

Have you tried cranking it by hand with the spark plugs (not that it matters) out? If you can't even hand crank it with no plugs then something is messed up internally.

Check if fuel lines are reversed

check grounds

Check if all clips are plugged on right

Since you did a rebuild, maybe timing?

Ok, go eat a bag of dicks then you lippy fuck. I'm trying to help you and you are just requoting your first post? Did you move to Texas from Florida by chance? I hope nobody else helps you and you sell your car to somebody more competent. By what you are describing it is binding but good luck with that. You obviously fucked up somewhere in your rebuild.

im only trying to get it to crank not start so the fuel lines and timing wouldnt really be an issue, ill check the grounds but since i bypassed the harness i dont think it should really make a difforance

Eat a bag of dicks asshole. You were a smart ass fucktard when you re-quoted your first post after I asked you a simple question trying to help.

Are you 100 % sure your engine is not locked up or really tight from being freshly rebuilt ?

I would get a breaker bar and just remove the fan and get a large enough socket to fit on the crank pulley and just turn it over by hand.. See how it feels.. sometimes you can actually feel alot just by doing that like if its really tight or seized or if there is any excess friction.

This guy^^ he's only 18 and he's from Texas. Nobody gives a fuck what he says.. Your only helping Erik give the rest of Texas a bad name. I know not all Texans are a bunch of tools like you two.

Look another tool, this thread is full of them.. Who said I had an auto? I swapped that shit out for a 5speed about a month after I bought my car since the auto was leaking everywhere.. Nope never had a car stolen or stripped. I'm not pissed off at anything. If I was I would probably be typing things in bold upper case to make it look like I was pissed. In all reality I couldn't give a fuck less about dumb fucks like you, Erik and dailymissile.. I'm simply trolling now just to piss you fuckers off. It seems to be working pretty well too.
