I had a similar problem as yours, maybe not as bad. I added Marvel mystery oil to each clyinder and let it soak. As was recommended from a previous board advisor. I jacked up only one of the rear wheels, put the transmission in third gear and rocked the rear tire back and forth. It worked. several things though: Block the wheels, remove spark plugs to releave compression, add about 2/3 oz of M M oil, don't be too agressive on the rocking motion, You might try a different gear, I marked the tire and the fender with a pencil, this helped me tell if I was making progress. My theory is it took years to seize up so give it at least a few days to break loose. Safety is very important, so be careful. hope this helps. lol oslo
