1020 engine seized, cylinder sleeve extraction

Posted by Greg (TX) on October 01, 2003 at 16:20:41 from (66.14.122.115):

Hi All,
Well my brother and I finally got the manifolds and head off of our grandfathers 1926 10-20. We have the cylinders soaking in hopes of breaking the engine free in the near future. Any ideas or suggestions as to how to break the cylinders free would be greatly appreciated. We are currently looking the at the old fashioned method of wood block and sledge hammer. And is there a tool available to pull the cylinder sleeves once we get the pistons freed? The cylinder seizure looks pretty tough as a couple of them had mouse nests in them and the tractor was sitting outside in Iowa for 50+ years without being turned over.
Any ideas or assistance would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you,
Greg
