If its only been sittin a year I dont think Id pull the head right away...Id get a can of blaster and empty it into all the cylinders followed by a good bit of ATF (cpl ounces each) and let it sit for awhile, if your not in a rush a few days is best but at least a cpl hours. Then find a spot where you can get a prybar on the flywheel (sometimes you have to pull the starter) and just try moving it in either direction if its only been a year it should come loose before long...When it does, put the starter back in and COVER THE PLUG HOLES cause it can shoot an oily mess for 50 feet when it rolls over the first time. The key things are Time to let the oils work and the leverage on the fly wheel. Engines that are stuck to bad to be freed up this way are usually going to have rings and cyl walls pitted so bad that they wont last long even if you do pull the head and beat em loose. at least thats been my experience...Good Luck...OCG
