Hey. Ive had my car standing idle for around a year and thought id get it ready for running again. I went to adjust the tappets so raised one side but the wheel will not turn. The spark plugs are out. Im just worried that the whole thing might be seized up. Any suggestions?

Are you sure the brakes aren't seized on?

see if you can turn it over by hand using the fan. Bee careful not to turn with the ends of the blades

Yeah its not the brakes. If i push hard on the wheel then the opposite wheel just starts to squeel round in the opposite direction on the diff. I might get some WD40 down the spark plug holes and try cranking it over on the starter.
