You are not making any sensr. You say you are rotating the crankshaft yetyou say your crankshaft spocket does not rotate. If that is the case the chain will not moce the the camshaft will not move. Why are you changing the chain, had it snapped. You may have sheared the crankshaft sprocket keyway. Regards Peter
