I think my engine locked up in my corsica, How do I make sure, and if it is the case, how and can I free it up again?

Yes, the coolant is relatively low. It has been sitting for about 3 months or so, but has been started every now and again and sat in idle for about 5 minutes each, maybe once every three weeks or so.
