Supraman508: I"m not disagreeing with any one here on most things.

But if you pull the head you automatically just spent 600 bucks and you've machined a surface that can't just be machined everytime you feel like taking it to the machine shop.

The more you machine the thicker the head gasket and the greater the reduction of a probable fix.

I also wouldn't just break it loose and start driving it. Because you'll be dragging some sort of buildup all up and down your cylinder walls scoring them.

Chances are you're going to be taking that head off. But what if?

Lot's of if's right there. I only said it once.

i'll give it a try.i'll take out the sparkplugs and see if i can unfreeze it.

I kind of have to agree with Homer on this. If the motor wouldn't even turn, why? If the rings were somewhat froze up, by getting it to turn, you will be wiping all kinds of stuff on the cyinders, not to mention moving it thru the whole motor. If you do get it running, I don't think you will due to the rings, no compression, it's not going to run very long.
