With this one first try to ensure what is stuck then unless it frees up easy at the very start, I always bite the bullet and pull it apart as follows. Take the sump/pan off, undo the conrod ends and tap the rods upward with a hammer and a piece of hard wood.Do it with the head still in place then the pistons wont come out the top. If the pistons free up easily bolt the ends back up, replace the pan and you should be good to go. More likely though you'll finish by stripping it right down. I've used all the magic potions and not had a lot of luck. I did once read a piece by a very clever man who said 'water got you into this mess so try using water to get out of it'. No I dont know exactly what he meant but next time I get a badly stuck one I might just try throwing it in the river. MTF
