Hello,


The engine hasn't ran in 8 months but the last time it ran everything was fine. Tried running it and the flywheel wont turn in either direction. Used some pb blaster in the cylinders and that didn't work. Also tried engine release and that did not work either. I noticed there was water in the lower unit when changing the gear oil. Any ideas what may cause the flywheel to not turn? Thanks.

First you need to drop the LU and remove the plugs. Then try turning it again. If it turns the problem is with the LU. If it doesn't turn, then you need to remove the head to open and inspect. Repost your findings.
