Great video. Bravo for your tenacity and success. I would only suggest a few observations. You are on the side of the road, suggesting the engine died while running, meaning it probably wasn't the starter. Charging the batteries and checking the oil was first and you did that. But when trying to turn the crank, removing the belt which has a lot of tension, would be first. Then adding a cheater bar to try and turn it. I would then say you did correctly by removing the plugs, as there is a thing called "hydro lock". But I would recommend trying to turn the crank again after the belt is off and the plugs are out. That would eliminate the need to fill each cylinder with oil. Usually an oil pressure failure would require you replace the oil pump...and the parts that go first are usually closest to the oil pump, which would be crank bearings...or top end parts like the cam bearings, etc. Seized cylinders are usually a result of overheating. And if she ran well...the oil pump or seized bearings didn't suddenly become repaired, so it was never an oil issue, nor a seized motor issue from lack of oil. I would suspect hydro locked, or possibly you found the alternator failed when your charged batteries drain back down again. You did great. Didn't need the starter and most likely putting oil to sit in the cylinders wasn't the fix. Releasing the compression by removing the plugs, and then the tension of the belt allowed it to turn over. This information is just for the guys watching the video who are trying to find out of they have a seized engine, or if in most cases like yours it is actually something else.

Thanks for this information

My 92 4.0 was running very bad. It’s a 4x4 and mechanic said he thought it was the oil pump. If it’s bad the engine has to be removed to replace it. Then it’s off to the scrap yard. He said put diesel in oil and run it for 10 minutes then drain. Then fill with diesel and run for another 10. That when everything went wrong. I heard it labor at the 10 min mark and shut it off. The put in the new oil. Tried to crank and it was frozen. I took off intake from air filter and it had diesel in it. Checked motor and it was didn’t move. Took the spark plugs out and belt. Plugs were burned down and a few were wet with diesel. With a cheater bar it moved the engine. Turn key and it has started moving. I’m about to add oil in cylinder and let sit. I feel very confident that it will run again. The oil pump was working. What I learned was that diesel really cleans engine. To clean 🧼. Now it is running a champ. Making mistakes happens. It’s what you learn along the way that’s important. I LEFT OUT ONE THING IT WAS RUNNING ROUGH BECAUSE THE AIR FILTER WAS SO OLD THAT IT CLOGGED INTAKE. LEARN FROM YOUR MISTAKES!

Wow, you Baldwin brothers are really talented! Actors and mechanics!

Ok, I can go with that... I'd rather be mistaken for Alec Baldwin, than for Pablo Escobar!... Another commentor implied that! Anyway... Thanks for the great comments! Hope this video helped you fix your car issues!!

Great video. Thank you. I am also in same situation with my car having run absolutely smoothly last time (bit low on coolant), Then car was parked for two days and suddenly engine is now seized. Like you I replaced my starter already. I will try some motor oil down spark plug hole and letting it sit and then trying to turn over the engine manually.

Great tutorial, thank you sooooo much! Question: how much oil you pulled into each cylinder?

Thanks for the video, Ill try that : )

Great job❤😊

Awesome video.

Mine did the exact same thing! Gonna make a video also.

I have a 2006 4.6 4x4 that I will keep forever. The new cars are complete garbage. Great video

How long did the oil drain in the cylinders before it turned? Great video! What year is that Explorer? Thanks for the information!

Do my need to be in neutral to turn the shaft?

mine locked up i cant turn crack either due to low to no oil. its been days and i still can get it to do right

Do u think I could do that to my ground Marquis motor 4.6 v8

I have a mercury mountaineer is it the same??

I'm working on a pt cruiser that displays same symptoms!😢😢

did low oil cause it to seize?

Berapa lama waktu yang anda gunakan sehingga piston bebas?

i hope you checked your pants after 23:22

Breaker bar may work there. It depends

It's a Ford, they seize dude. Don't waste money on starters if V is good. Put a bar on the crank bolt first.

Mine just stop running and didnt start back up..it just make a clicking noise when putting the ignición on to start

Did you check the oil pump my had the same issue

I don't think I ever heard of an engine seizing after stilling less than a year, curious .

My buddy said the same thing to me.. It's not seized... unless water or coolant is leaking into places that it shouldn't.. It shouldn't seize in such a short time... It does seem that my coolant keeps disappearing though??? Not sure where it is going??? Maybe this is the reason??? If water gets into the cylinders.. it could build up some rust, that could seize the cylinders???.. It did have multiple problems.. All at the same time.. the battery went dead, the starter went bad,.. and the RFID sensor in the key/steering column went bad.. Maybe I was mistaken??... but I was not able to budge the crank... before putting the oil in the cylinder!??... I think demons are following me around!

@@jaynesnetwork My truck is doing the exact same thing. Same make and model. I’m so glad I found this video

Let me say this, being a Ford had nothing to do with 3 fresh plugs or adding oil to the cylinders.. In your video you didn't immediately cut off the serpentine belt anyway before trying to torque the crank.. I'd say you're AC compresser is bad and once you took the belt off freed the compressor up enough to start and run.. You're ac compressor is bad ,it's common to Ford. Next time IMMEDIATELY take the belt off or cut it, again no matter what you'll need a new one.. No matter the make, model or year, take the belt off FIRST, because that leaves the motor free to turn if it's going to...

All other seized engines videos except yours go straight to the problem, spark plugs, turning crankshaft, pouring down mystery oil into cylinder holes,but you spent 15 minutes walking in & out of the car, messing with the battery, with the starter, back into the car,etc. You're doing too much & it wears a viewer out

Should just smack the starter instead of just replaceing it
