Motor may be Binded

[five 0 low]

I think my motor binded when i let it sit for 4 months and its been really cold this winter. Was away , wasnt able to start up every now and then

If i put a ratchet to the balancer bolt while car is in nuetral, will this help pry it loose?


any suggestions to unbind motor?

Before you try to break it free, put a little bit of marvel mistery oil in each spark plug hole and let it sit for a while. Then try to break it free with a socket on the balancer bolt.

How did you come to the conclusion that the motor is bound up?

He probably couldnt get anything to move when he cranked?
