That mark was not there before. If I am missing a washer would it all turn freely when cases are apart? It seems perfect now.

If you click this link http://m.imgur.com/C1Cnnyh,FYIH9MP,ssqCFTi,2J3Rpl9 you shoulf see 4 pics, it should be:
Washer
Gear (bearing inside)
Washer
Gear

But there is only 1 washer what do you guys think? Could that be the cause

There should be a washer under gear 1 and between gear 1 and 5. If you're missing the washer between the two, that could be enough to bind it up.

Ive fixed that and haven't put the cases back together yet. I noticed looking at the 2 shafts the gears arent flush at the top but on your image and the manual they are.

Any ideas? Im not missing any washers ect.

Check to be sure the first gear isn't flipped upside down. I had mine upside down at one point. When it was upside down, everything was bound up and wouldn't shift. I'd temporarily put the cases together and see if it goes through the gears.

This was one thing I found wrong on my workshop manual...

Did you have the washer right on the top? Check orientation of top gear.

Well I feel like the biggest idiot ever. The top gear was on wrong. The gear goes in like 2mm deep on one side, I thought that was a nice groove for the washer but it wasn't. I switched around the gear and it all went in smooth. Engine is back together now and seems to be turning over fine. Will give it a test run tomorrow.

Thanks all!
