It really depends on what "stuck" means. Do you know the history of the motor? Or have more details on why it's "stuck?"

Re: 200 HP suzuki frozen motor

If the piston rings are rusted to the cylinder walls, then maybe you can get it to move by spraying some penetrating oil in each spark plug hole and put a wrench on that big flywheel nut on top of the motor and try to get it to turn. If the rings are rusted to the cylinders, then there may be more corrosion on crankshaft and rod roller bearings. A rebuild on that motor would be pretty darn expensive, parts and labor. You can buy rebuilt powerheads that will go on it. Hopefully you may be able to free it up!
