I took my top end off because it filled with antifreeze, then I put it back on and everything worked and it kicked over. Then when i went to start it up about a week later the kickstarter is stuck and will only go about 1/4 to 1/2 way down and not kick, what would be the problem and how would i go about solving this problem.
Thanks!

Sounds like it maybe full of water again and hydrolically locked? Or maybe you stuck a piston? Take the top end off and look, that is the only way you will ever know.

Yeah, its not the gaskets if it ran before. You have a siezed piston. Takes the top end off and look. You might need a new piston/rings

pull the spark plug. if it is hydrolocked it will turn over. if it still wont move it is siezed. good luck!
