Default Flywheel/Pull Start

Hi folks, Noobie here, I finished running in my new Hyper 8.5 this afternoon and used around 1 litre of Nitro which was 6 tanks. All went fine with it, though an hour after the last tank I went down to my local park to start driving my buggy slowly and get things happening.

Problem is the pull start wont budge now and the fly wheel wont turn/move at all, I have tried a little WD 40, also tried heating the motor up with a hair dryer. Even inserted a screwdriver into the teeth of the fly wheel and tapped it gently to try and free it with no luck at all.

Is this common with a new engine and has anyone got a solution to my problem.

Surely it wouldn't have siezed, as it ran all the fuel out fine from the last tank.

Help please

Cheers Mal
