: Whoa up there, Josh. What's the hurry? Your F-20 ain't going anywhere. Check out the "Talk of the town" section on our host's home page for some good info on freeing a stuck engine. The key that runs through all the messages is "take your time". Hooking up hydraulics to a cylinder will likely ruin a piston, blow out the head gasket and not free up anything.

Hey Josh, THROTTLES IDLE, SPEED BRAKES OUT. Little AF lingo. TAKE YOUR TIME! I have had good luck with Marvel Mystery oil. Put an ample amount in each cylinder and let her sit a week or two before making any attempt to turn her. You could easily crack the block if not careful.
