my daughter took her car too a mechanic he told her the sparkplug got sucked into the head. I had never heard of this so i checked the plugs, their fine.However the starter engages but wont turn the fly wheel.The oil checks out ok as well as the water.What would cause it to get stuck?

The starter motor overrunning clutch is slipping or the engine is locked-up
