    I can't help, but if you post a couple pictures, someone else probably can.
    Good luck.

    Were you using the overlap method or companion cylinder?

    Had you set anything on #6?

    Were you using the key to bump it over and not the accessory drive?

    Sounds like either a valve hit a piston from being to tight or an injector to tight and broke a spring or worse
