Hardly anybody has time or patience to unstick a motor.If you want to work on it,you want to work on it now.Maybe you can get lucky and find one that you can get un stuck before your patience runs out,maybe not.It takes a couple of weeks usually at least,and thats if its not stuck real bad.I think one that might work on a motor thats stuck bad is,clean as much rust as you can off of the cylinder walls that you can.Get it clean as you can on the bottom of the cylinder walls.Find or make a pipe that fits just inside the cylinder then I would weld a plate in it to make it solid.Then rig a way to put a hydraulic jack on it and I would soak it with penetrating oil,atf,lucas,marvel,whatever,maybe even burn some of it right on top,not getting it real hot,on all the cylinders.Then after all that put a little pressure on it.If it wont move then,take the crank out,push one at a time.They still might break if its stuck real bad.You would want that to be a real close fit to the piston and make it where it couldnt get down between the piston and block,if that happened it would be a big problem,thats why I would weld a plate inside to keep that from happening.

I was also embarking on planting 1000 eucalyptus trees, and hence I would need a ripper, small disk plow, sprayer etc. to get these things accompli
