Topic: your opinion please on my rotovator (did a silly thing)

[Thegoodlife]

hi all,

2 days ago i started to rotovate my plot, first block i did no problem.
yesterday started to do another but i did a very stupid thing yep forgot to check the oil!!! :o.
So i started her up no problem then when she was working it started to struggle as  the ground was hard but it was soft after the rain we had,so i stopped the engine thinking about the oil, i kicked myself when i checked dry!!. so i went to the garage and got some oil poured it in, tried to pull and yep i could not move it, im hoping ive been luky and i may be able to un seaze the engine advise would be great.
ive been told to remove the head puor loads of wd40 around the piston head, remove all the fly wheel assy then get a good socket bar with a 19mm socket then give it some., its a briggs engine 5hp

 Steve, I think you know that your rotovator is K-nackered, if you need an engine give me a shout I can put you in touch with someone that might have an engine, if you look on e-bay there are a couple of 5hp B&S engines for auction,
