ok so so far iv hade 3 diff kinds of engine, 1 .25 force, 3 .28 force, and 1 .28 big red .. my question in this is , is it normal that the .25 hase more resistance on the crank then the other .28 i hade n tryed b4 ??? the engines i use atm is the .25 and the .28 big red .. they both start up 1-3 pulls each , they bouth seem to be working the same way (obviosly the .28 is faster but i mean in general) .... thanks again guys..
 
Without knowing the exact dimensions of each engines sleeve and piston I would say its completely normal for different displacements to have differing clearances and pinch points. Even on brand new engines.

oh ok thats good to no then... me i just thought the bigger one would be harder to crank but its good i am wrong loll.. thanks
 
There's nothing to be worried about unless it is real lose, all engines have different levels of use, therefore meaning that they will have different levels of wearing- meaning some will have more resistance than others. If your still worried just give the engines bearing a clean.
