I'm working on a 550xp for a local tree guy. The saw is not oiling. In my haste to remove the clutch using my normal method of starter rope in the spark plug hole, I accidentally got the rope caught in the exhaust port. I still didnt get the clutch off and now the saw is bound up solid. What are my options here? I pulled the recoil off and tried to turn the crank the other way with a ratchet but I'm afraid I'm gonna break the crank. I pulled the muffler and I can see the bit of rope poking through but I cannot see the piston rings so its wedged in there good
