Can you reach under the flywheel cover to turn the flywheel.-----Remove spark plugs and see if it pulls over.----Hopefully the oil injection has been removed and thrown away !

Thanks for the reply
ya I removed all the injection crap and I pulled off the pull rope , tried to turn it by hand and it moves a little but I didn't have the right size socket to use a braker bar I sprayed some penetrating oil in the cylinders and try again tomorrow
 
Before you put a breaker bar on it pull the lower unit off and see if it turns over. The lower unit can do the same thing if you have a bad bearing or broken gear.
 
?????--------The poster said he removed the lower unit in post # 1-----------And what happened when you removed the sparkplugs ????
