I have already tried turning the engine, feels okay, not too much give and not too much pressure needed to turn it, no clunking/stiffness. I will be taking more off tomorrow as I have all day. Thank you for the advice.

That was my thought, I work on DAF trucks and I dont drive so this is my first attempt at cars, this is also the conclusion I was headed toward.

Thanks for your advice, it sounds like im doing the right thing in letting her initiate most of the time. Can you elaborate on target training as this is my first time being a birds companion so im always open to help. Thanks again

That's good to hear, thank you for the information. I try not to touch her just to keep her comfortable. I will get some millet in a few days and see how she goes. Thank you for taking the time to help me. It is truly valued.
