yeah, seized up. Sounding more and more like you will have to pull the motor. It must have gotten very full of water.

You probably have internal damage at this point.

I hear many people talking about seafoam deep creep, marvels mystery oil, that these things, for lack of a better word, cure a seized engine. Idk if you guys have had any experience with these things in the past
