#1, use subject lines that actually reflect the problem.
#2, pull the plugs out and try to drain the engine.
#3, did you drop anything down the intake (bolts, small animals, etc?)

If either the fwd or aft stationary gears have chipped/ missing teeth (or were removed or loosened for some reason), the rotor can "displace" itself internally while you're turning the engine & get stuck like you're describing (don't ask how I know this...)

My bet is you've dropped a nut or washer into an intake runner. I've done the same thing on my FD. A royal PITA to get it out. Depedning on whcih side of the motor it dropped down will dictate how to retrieve it. If it dropped down the port side you might be able to catch it with a magnetic on a string through an intake port. If it's dropped down the plug side...you're screwed. Will have to disassemble motor unless you can see it through a spark plug hole.
Take a look and have a chuckle at my expense:
