What was going on previous to the engine locking up? This will sometimes point you in the right direction for troubleshooting.

If you can only turn it a quarter turn I would be first looking at the stator side to see if something let loose on the stator and is jamming it up. Do the same on the clutch side.

If thats not it, you are looking at something internal, again the history of what was going on before it locked up would be helpful. Was it overheating, any noises, knocking, high engine RPM's??
