ok i have rewritten my post cause it seem incomprehensible.

i have an 2.5r revo and yesterday it was working fine today i wasn't able to get it started the engine always seem to get stock on TDC.if i remove the glow plug or really slack it the pistonwill move with the easy start but if the glow plug it tighten then if will make a turn or 2 and then stop .when it stop the ligth for the motor on the easy start stop glowing. i have already change my electric motor thinking it was that but its not.battery venom 3300 fully charge but the engine keep TDC.

is my engine dead ? what do i need to check to be sure its dead ?

Its hard to understand your post, go back and correct your spelling so we can understand it. then maybe you will get some help.
 
thx the rewriting is done I'm french sorry for the poor english.
 
ok i have open my motor and i have constated that my piston connecting rod seem to be loose on the pilot shaft is that normal ?
 
I have the same issue with my 3.3 but knew how to get around it.

It jams at TDC because the piston is tight in the sleeve. To get around it try warming the head with a hair drier or hot air gun before taking it out. I do this and it fires up first time. I'm hoping that once I bed it in I shouldn't have to do this.

Hope this helps
