I only tried turning the engine over for a max of 5 seconds or so each time I tried (~5 times). It just doesn't "feel the same" as it normally does when I try to start it.



The symptoms you are describing(engine spinning unusually easy) are the same as I and other CEGers experienced after doing this job. That's why I said to crank at WOT for 20 seconds, because it worked for all of us.
You may have other problems but this one is an easy diagnosis.
