Smoothcat, You can do this quicker and easier than waiting 6 months for the tranny fluid to free it up. Follow what I telly you. 1st, get hood, gas tank, head, manifold, and oilpan off. 2nd, Remove the rod caps, # them and set aside. 3rd, Roll tractor outside, and remove ALL combustables away from the tractor and immediate area. 4th, One cylinder at a time, fill the cylinder full of Diesel, add a splash of gas. Set it on fire, let it burn itself out! 5th, drive the pistons up for the crank is in the way to go down. NOTE( if the engine was on an engine stand and the Crank was removed, one could drive the pistons out, and down through the bottom) Thus saving the pistons and sleeves, they might be saved. The fire will expand the sleeve and break the rust loose. Just be safe, observe common safty practices. You can get this job done in a afternoon. Sometimes two or more burns may be needed if the piston is near the top of its stroke. Good luck, hope this helps. Later, John A.
