If the engine is realy locked I wouldn't use a wrench on the crank bolt
. Some people get over zellious and you could break it off
. A better way is a strap wrench around the crank pully. As Don said coat the cylinder walls with WD-40 or some good penitrating oil. Let it set a while then try turning it over. Maybe you could hook up a starter to it and leave the plugs out while trying to turn it. Anyway try to get a better price as hes the one that let it sit with no protection.

That is why I said "gently" rock the crank back and forth.

It would be nice if this up and down crap would cease.
