      Robert,
      Maybe I didn’t understand your post. Are you turning the gear on the clutch? Resistance on the compression stroke as the piston reaches the top of the cylinder would be normal. However, turning the clutch drum gear should not cause the crankshaft to turn.

      I’m not turning the clutch, the clutch turns free. Yes its resistance to the piston, so it looks like I’m in the clear. Thanks!

      You’re good. A 2-cycle engine basically needs gas with oil, air, compression and a spark to run.
