Rings are fragile, no severe jolts or you'll break them.
Let the penetrant have it's time to work the rust's hold loose.

Now the engine will not turn . Not even with a breaker bar and cheater pipe.

It's not hydro-locked, but it has sat for 2 years in the driveway. SO of
course this means the rings rusted to the cylinder walls.
So I sprayed LPS in every cylinder .
How long does that take to work- any better ideas?
We are normally 60-100% humidity here in the PNW so I am not surprised it
froze.
Just that on other engines that froze I was able to break them free with a
breaker bar. This one seems that I would break the bar if I could stand on
it.
Could I attach the towbar and break it free by towing? Anybody done that
before?
