Default Re: OK! Oldtimers, Gimme your best answer, Stuck Engine

Starter is stuck. I would bet when it seized you pressed on the starter button and it felt like stepping on a rock with no response from the starter or engine. Try to remove the starter and if you can't get it out of the bellhousing easily, put the car in 3rd and roll it backwards or just rock it mightily till the bendix releases. Been there, done that.
