This is how I do it and have had good luck doing os. I've only had one engine it didn't work on in the past 4 years and I have done about 10 with stuck engines in that time. First off blow out all the cylinders so that theres no water etc. in them. Then fill them with tranny fluid and walk away for a week. Then with the plugs back out, be sure to alway put them back in, after filling the cylinders. Then take a battery and hook it up, the starter will have more torque then you have no matter where you try to turn it over from. Just do fasy short taps of the starter do no hold it all or you will burn up the starter. If it doesn't brake free then, top the tranny fluid off with turpentine, not paint thinner of minrail spirts. Wait another week and try again. If it hasn't popped loose it may never or it may take more time soaking. I've had them pop loose just after a day and on others it took a month or more
