Siezed engine

I've got an Oliver Row Crop 60 tractor. Its been in the corner of the barn for two years. I went to start it and the engine is siezed up. I sprayed PB Blaster in the cylinders and let it set overnight. I've been rocking it back and forth in gear without success. Anybody have better luck with another solvent.

You sure the motor is seized, and not something else? My buddy's 89 Daytona's alternator seized but we thought it was the motor, turns out those belts hold pretty damn tight. And if it is the motor, Marvel Mystery Oil for sure.

It is the engine for sure. I tried PB Blaster first. Now I've got Sea Foam creeping oil in it. It says it works great on siezed engines. If it doesn't break loose tomorrow I'll tear it down and rebuild it. Maybe I'll do a complete restoration on it and keep it.

Put it in 4th or 5th gear and try it...It gives it more leverage then 1st gear...Just my .02 cents...
