Default RE: Winterizing Engine when something went wrong

Sounds like you rinsed all the oil out of the poor thing then turned it over and it grabbed at top dead center.

Give it a good squirt of oil through the glow plug. You could remove the back plate and get some in there too. Mount a prop, and turn it over.

Heat will help, as noted. Careful you don't use flammable oil such as wd-40

... at least that's what I'd do.

Then get some after run oil from the hobby store and douse it well.
