its just manual work that will do the job, and doing it properly. not listening to what atf, kerosene , wd40, brake fluid and them other concoctions do, its like this, if one worked they all will work.that being is it is lightly stuck from condensation and any oily substance will do the job. everybody says atf, thats balony to, ihave a w6 that is stuck, took the head off and filled the cyls. with wd40 and it run down into the pan, so then ithought i will experimentand filled the cyls up with atf. and they still have that atf sitting in them since may.so that proves that the thinner the vis the sooner it will work its way past the piston. there is no miracle potion or lotion that will simply unstick your engines.when you rebuild your engine do you throw in a handfull of floor sweepings before putting the head on? i have taken engines apart that the head and cyls. were just plugged with rust and other garbage and imean solid.dissasembled them removed valves and cleaned everything up and put them back together with even the same head gskt. and they run like a charm. but in my mind i know what work they still need, because you need to get the tractor running to see if there is other issues with it. any engine i have dissasembled from rust, it needs new parts not cans of compression.a nice crosshatch pattern in the cyls. and everything clean, not rings that are seized in the piston causing blowby.so to sum it up, you can put anything oily in your cyls. and if it dont free up with minimal work , you gotta pull it apart , no ifs ands or buts.but there is one but anyone can take things apart, but to get it together is another story. and i am sure anybody mechanically inclined or instructor agrees.thats enough preaching and punching for the day.
