Awhile back I posted that my muffler was loose on the exhaust manifold and I got a whole lot of water in my crankcase and cylinders. Well, I was pretty quick to change the oil, but I wasn't able to get it started afterwards, so it's been sitting for quite some time now. The foot switch starts breathing fire when I try to turn it over, so I concluded that it must be stuck (turning the fan by hand confirms this). I put some ATF fluid in each cylinder and let it soak for a day and a half. Then I took the plugs out and tried to pull it to get the crank to turn over and it just skids the tires when I let out the clutch. It must be pretty bound up. Any ideas on what I might do next, aside from pulling off the head to inspect further. Any miracle juice out there that might be better than the ATF. Some of it got past the rings, because I cracked the oil drain plug and I got some red fluid. Thanks for the help.
