I think your rear differential has shit the bed.  On my Syncro, I can rotate
a front wheel but, I cannot budge the rear wheel even with a 5 foot long
cheater on a 3/4" breaker bar.  Perhaps the emergency brake has something to do
with it . . . whad'ya think, Dave?

Seriously now, and I am having trouble taking your naive observation(?)
seriously, what you have observed(?) is a result of something called power.  You
know, the differential of work with respect to time, joule/sec and all that
kinda stuff.

Now, there is something I have observed which brings to mind a question.  How
can you possibly be designing effective engine conversion kits when you are
unable to resolve such a basic phenomenon?
