I picked up a 23 FT Glasply that has what I believe is a siezed TMD40/AQD40A engine. I have not really played with diesel engines. Before. I plan on restoring this boat to get it back on the water. The starter is off and some gearing at the top of the VP 280 is removed. Appears to have been rebuilt and is in the cabin. The crank does not turn. Is there anything else that would restrict the crank from turning? The controls show in neutral. Oil is dark but does not show any water. If it is seized and I remove it what is an average cost to have the the longblock rebuilt? My backup plan will be a crate 350 long block.
