Hey guys. After taking a 1 month break from driving my car i took it out and when i tried to pull start it i couldnt even pull the cord. To me this seems like i blew my engine but how could i blow it without driving it?

Can you turn the flywheel by hand?

sounds like the piston is stuck , remove glow plug and pore a little nitro down into the hole let it set for a little while and try turning it over by the flywheel , you could try pulling the cord but risk breaking it ! take a screwdriver and gently start turning the fly wheel very slow this should break it free
