Like mentioned above, crank it a ways clockwise till you feel resistance, then wait till the compression bleeds off, then turn it some more (still clockwise).

If you can get the crankshaft to make a full revolution, that would indicate that the engine is not completely locked up.

However, that doesn't mean you are completely out of the woods ...... you could still have a spun bearing that the starter motor can't overcome.

Where did @Ultramaroon and @Tcoat run off to ....... church ......??
