Rick, Get the head , gas tank, and all surpurlas stuff off you M. Get all flammable liquids away too. If possoble, roll the tractor outside. Now one cylinder at a time pour in agoodly amount of Diesel, then just a small splash of gas and set fire to each cylinder that you know is stuck. The heat from the fire will cause the sleeve to expand so it will more easly break loose. Then just drive out the piston. If the piston is near TDC then you may need to do it a couple or three times to get enough heat to get the piston to loosen up. You should be able to salvage the pistons by doing it this way. Better than than useing a tourch, for the heat is more even. Hope this helps.
later,
John A.
