I am not sure if yours did the same thing, but when I hand turned the propeller it was sort of stiff.

This is one of the ports. the other side is the same way. I think you do need to return yours. I am tempted to kind of grind that rounded spot out. seems to be part of casting mode when made.

Left side of engine with cylinder head just taken off. And yes that is a bolt, that I had to saw off to remove the head. But look at the gasket....

those ports that were blocked by gasket from housing to head and vice versa, all had coolant in them...... I thought coolant was suppose to run through these ports to keep the engine cool??? so why sell a gasket that blocks these important ports???

this is the cylinder head from the left side of the engine. notice the clogged gunk. that gunk is radiator stop leak and/or gasket sealant, that people put in their cars to stop leakage. And trust me there was gunk in the radiator hoses also.......geeez! Also notice the valve seat rings hanging out, yup, poor car.

this is the head gasket that was on the left side. This sucks if this thing is blocking all coolant passages

in the beginning of removing parts, I found this in the thermostat housing very bad goo.

I used a flat head screw driver to see if I can easily remove that stuff.
