russel... the motor heat siezed. what you can do is dump some marvel mystery oil in the spark plug hole ... or tarnny fluid ... then put a whench on the flywheel nut ,(or give the starter rope a hard yank ) this might do it . the engine will smoke from the remaing oil , but it might go , I did the same with my murry rider 10 hp once and it worked
