Default Siezed motor...can't crank over motor

Motor is already pulled and the head is off. Can I spray some carb cleaner or pb blaster or something on the pistons? I think it's getting stuck there...since I'm pulling the pistons/rods and the sleeves need to be rehoned anyways will it hurt anything?

Let me know when you figure that out because I'm stuck as well and not sure if I should use wd40 or any of that other stuff.

pb blaster or wd40 will be fine if your gonna tear it apart anyway. and if your not i would suggest you do. if the motor is still in the car check and make sure none of your assesories (alternator or whatever) are locked up. that could make it seem like your motor is locked up if you got good belts.
