Question - can I turn the engine with the PTO - with the PTO engaged and tractor out of gear?
I have a situation with an Allis C - 1941 that has a stuck engine .. (I have had a number of engines that were stuck and all came "unstuck" after lots of Marvel Mystery Oil - BP
Blaster and Diesel fuel .. on the cylinders) ..
But this one is a tough one .. I haven't worked on it much .. I have had them set for 3 months - and seem futile - and by working it a little at a time . ... finally come
loose and NOT smoke !!! and run fine . . (except one engine smoked on an 8N Ford) ...
My situation is I can't really get a good grip from the front .. here is my question
Why can't I put the transmission in NUETRAL and put the PTO on ... and turn the PTO to turn the engine?
Will this work or is there something I am missing .. ?
Thanks so much ..
Gary
