How Do You Know If Your Car Engine Has Seized?

David Mathley answered

You take all the spark pugs out so there is no compression. Then you get about a 3 feet long breaker bar with a socket to fit the nut on the big pully on the front, lower, center of the engine. Put the socket on the nut and pull on the breaker bar. If it moves it is not seized. If it wont move no matter how hard you pull then it most likely is seized.
