Appreciate the responses. It sat out for two years, but was covered, ran out of room in the shed. Was last used on an auger after rebuild, and it was a complete rebuild, head as well. About six weeks ago I looked in the cylinders with a bore site, and looked really clean, no rust or carbon. Thought for sure the atf-acetone would work. Pulling the head alone won't help much, as I don't see how a person could drive them down as a unit intact. Would still have isolate each one, so wouldn't the crank have to come out first? Thought about pulling pan, backing the rocker arms off to close the valves on the pistons on the down stroke and then put air pressure to those. Never thought about breaking a piston at the pin on the down stroke. Was just thinking, what if someone tried the starter at sometime and it got locked up? Could that be wedged in there and causing the seizure?
