I jusy got an M unstuck recently, mine was cylinder #1 although I wasn't for sure untill I got it to budge, I think water entered through the exhaust valve...PB Blaster, brake fluid was tried then I took the head off, I even put gasoline in the cylinders and burned it to warm it up as metal expands when warm,but the thing that made the difference was knowing if it moved or not, I measured down into the cylinder to the top of the piston,record the number, make up several ash or oak blocks from wooden pallet runners,cut them down to fit your cylinders,get a nice sturdy stand so you can get up on and swing the sledge to push the suspected stuck piston down, providing it still has some stroke left, otherwise you select the one next door, measure often, when you split a wooden block or you are out of breath , don't smack the studs for the head with the sledge!when it goes down enough to get a hone in there, hone it to clean up the cylinder so it'll come back up ok, progress will be sloooooow . this worked for me,good luck ,keep us posted
