I have a 12 hp tecumseh engine that wont turn over. the whole thing is frozen up. I've tried turning the shaft with vice grips, and pounding on the piston but it wont budge. I think it must have sat for a long time wihtout being used. Need ideas desperately!!! thanks

#1, throw away the vicegrips and don't use them on the shaft. I would pull the pan off and take off the connecting rod cap. Then using a hammer and a piece of wood try tapping on the rod to drive the piston out of the engine. Then try to remove the crank shaft. If it's that frozen up it will have to be rebuilt anyway. Then my best shot at it would be to get a Kohler or Briggs to replace it with.
