WELL, MY 49 "A" IS OFF THE HILL AND THE ENGINE IS NOT STUCK. THE HEAD HAS A PIECE BROKEN OFF. I HAD PUT MARVEL MYSTERY OIL IN THE CYLINDERS ABOUT 3 WEEKS AGO AND JUST LET SIT. THE TRACTOR HAS NOT RUN IN PROBABLY 20 YEARS AND HAS SET OUTSIDE. THE CRANKCASE WAS DRAINED AND OUT CAME WATER FIRST, THEN JUNKY OIL. I HAVE A NEW PARTS CATALOG AND A SHOP MANUAL. BUT, BECAUSE I'M SO MECHANNICALLY INEPT, I DO NOT KNOW WHAT TO DO NEXT BEYOND HITTING ALL THE NUTS AND BOLTS WITH PB BLASTER AROUND THE HEAD AND BLOCK. SO, HELP ME OUT WOULD YOU, PLEASE?

Butch these old machines are fairly simple,little patience time and money you'll get it going. First I'd open crank case,the lid is just in front of steering column wash it out good with Diesel fuel,also remove and install new filter(on the undernath side round bulge) and fill crankcase with fressh oil.You should drain all fluids and put in new,the rearend holds 85w-90w oil,I usually wash rear end out with dieselfuel and stir with compressed air then drain. The head piece broken off is probably where someone let it freeze so you might have to repair or replace head,then get fuel and spark to it and your home free later Gman
