I think the idea is to work the crank back and forth a little.

With old tractors that are stuck the cylinders are loaded with a 50:50 mixture of ATF and acetone. A weight is hung on the end of a 4' pipe connected to the crankshaft. The set up is left for a few weeks. Unless it is really stuck, it will come loose.

That could be hard to do with the fenders in place, but maybe you could use a ratchet strap to keep pressure on the crank while the oil seeps into the rings.

Patience will get it done.
