Engine doesn't start right.

No when u turn the flywheel by hand u can hear clicking and sound's like something is loose and some spots is really hard. When spark plug out turn fine but still a little resistance.
 
I would take the engine cover off and see if the starter gear is matching up the the ring gear. Double check everything make sure nothing is touching the flywheel.
I would also recheck the valves.

Here is the best way to adjust valves.
Take spark plug out take valve cover off turn engine counterclockwise till one valve is all the way open ( pushed in ) adjust other valve to spec repeat for other valve.

This is just an example of the part you need, without all engine numbers I cannot locate correct part. Tecumseh Genuine Part Camshaft 33148A | eBay
