Disels do not often stick like gasoline tractors unless you leave it out in the rain without a weather cap on the exhaust. Before you put too much stress on the engin and break a crank shaft, you might want to check for hydraulic lock. That occurs when the cylinder gets full of liquid. Putting oil or diesel in the exhaust will only oil one or two cylinders and is sure to cause hydraulic lock. You have to remove the injectors to turn it over or otherwise pull the head. Try the injectors first. If it will turn, spin it until all the liquid is out. If if will not turn, use a mixture of kerosene and transmision oil (the ratio is on you) and squirt it into the injector holes. Let it sit for a few days and try rocking the tractor in high gear. After putting the oil into the cylinders, you will have to spin the excess out with the starter before replacing the injectors. Have them pointed in a direction that does not matter since it will be messy.
