yes,and i am adding i dont recommend it either.why wreck more stuff and most likely not getting the original problem fixed?
the only time oil soaking will free a stuck engine is if only the rings are lightly stuck to wall. if you can see any rust around piston top on cyl. that a teardown job. i have a w6 stuck from sitting in a barn and can not even see rust in the cyl's. i have the cyl's with oil in them for almost a year and 2 of then are not draining. and its not free either. this is my own experiment as everyone is gunghoe on soaking. i do know it has to come apart but its top priority .. so let it soak. i dont even fool around with soaking , cause why would i walk around a soaker looking at it when i can do the job correctly, and also have the unit running long before some concauction even has a chance of working.i like to see a nice crosshatch on the cyl's and clean not run the pistons in rust and carbon doing further damage, and running in rust pits.
ooh and this tractor also had the exhaust covered also. my experience with soaking is about 1 in 10 may come loose.
and also a little 140 engine is so easy to work on.
also never hear about engines freeing up on here either. have heard others come back and say, its pull apart time.
