[QUOTE="Weldorthemagnificent, post: 474494, member: 22139"] I would start with pouring seafoam in the plug holes and through the carb. Pit the plugs back in and let it sit, turn the motor on one side then the other letting the seafoam work for a couple days. Then put a wrench on the flywheel and see if you can break it loose. A siezed motor can still be broke loose and run if there isn't any damage. If it breaks loose, dribble a little oil in the cylinders to lube everything up. Once it's free a compression test will tell if it needs to be torn down or not. If it frees up and compression checks out ok, then move on to the carb and clean/rebuild that. Then spark and wiring. I'd save water pump and lower end for after I had the motor sorted out. Sent from my CLT-L04 using Tapatalk [/QUOTE]
