Don, By all means don't try pulling it to turn it over as you are at high risk of breaking internal engine components if in fact it is froze up. I would suggest using some of the comments already provided by earlier responses. Pull the plugs and tranny in neutral where you don't have a compression issue to deal with and see if you can turn the engine with the fan belt. If you still can't turn it you are probably froze up to some degree. Put some ATF as noted by old in his response and let it set several days. Jack up a rear tire and put the tranny in 5th gear and rock the wheel back and forth a little. Also, as noted trying turning the engine over (tranny in neutral) using a bar and the flywheel. If you are going to be able to free it up without tearing into the engine that should work for you. You might have to keep at it for a few weeks. I don't recall if you noted where the tractor has been stored since it was running last as that has a lot of bearing on the probability of it being frozen. We wish you luck in your endeavors and please post progress, Hal.
