I recently picked up a nice 120si which was running great. I picked up a new bar and chain and the sprocket had to be replaced too. The issue is, after replacing the sprocket, the engine seems to have seized.
I’ve replaced many clutch drums and sprockets and never had an issue before. I used the rope in the cylinder method and a long-handle socket. I didn’t seem to have too much issue getting it off. Pretty standard. Everything was cleaned, new grease and reassembled. Everything seemed to cycle fine when hand turning.
I turned the choke on, gave it a couple of pulls, it kicked over, choke off, went to give another pull to start and the pull start was stuck. In fact the whole engine seems seized. Before I do anything else, I figured I’d ask here. What dumb #%?% thing could have I done?!
