With cylinders and pistons off if I rotate the crankShaft via Spinning the flywheel By hand shouldn’t the Crankshaft continue to turn indefinitely? Or should it stop and not spin at one point?

It will not spin indefinitely. This is due to energy being lost to friction in the bearings, any surface contacts, friction from the air, and friction from oil.
