: I shut down my Farmall H at the start of the winter. I went out to the tractor, charged the battery and tried to start it. This year it didn't. Apparently a piston(s) is frozen in the sleeve. I even tried rolling it and letting the clutch out in 5th gear...just dragged the tires. I have taken the head off to take a peek. I do see some rust in #3 and #2, but nothing I would call piston siezing material. What next? I need to bush hog my field before safaris start to appear! Jeff, try Marvel Mystery Oil. You can get it in a farm store for about $12/gallon. It is in a red/black can. Soak all 4 cylinders with this for a week. Suggest you then get pulled slowly and let out the clutch in 5th gear. Good luck
