Let's not start a fire in the stuck cylinder unless you plan on pulling the sleeve. You will melt the o-rings.

Couple of suggestions.

1) Remove the connecting rod cap and bolts. From the bottom press the piston and perhaps the sleeve out with a hydraulic jack and oak 2x4. You can purchase one piston and one sleeve if needed.

2) If the piston is not on top or bottom dead center. 4x4 to fit cylinder. Hydraulic jack on top of the 4x4. Chains, across top of hydraulic jack, bolted down using head bolt holes. Press the piston down enough to get it moving.

PS. I have one engine that I worked on for a year trying to free up one piston. That was 3 years ago. It's still stuck.
