Ok I realized I seized my motor. My oil pressure was good but I now realize last time I used tractor I was Leaking oil. I did not run out of oil but it ran low. and with that after I shut if off I think the heat seized it up.
Ok I got ATF down there now soaking but going to to Mystery oil and some kerosense too...
But I cannot see to get through the "keyhole" in the front end with a socket to turn crank. Ive read many put in gear to rock it back and forth. but my question is...what gear is best...I read some saying 1st gear and other saying 4th gear to rock it a bit after soaking for a good week or two. What do you suggest???
Any other tricks...Ive heard even with oil / heat seizures they may be able to unstick em. but thats my deal. I didnt even realize stuck at first. I though battery low. but check oil as I usually do before I started and I was down about two quarts or so....and it was full when I used last so it leaked out while I was running it I presume. then after I shut of....she stuck up!!!!
I really love this tractor. would it also help to heat up block to try and expand the metal a bit when I rock it...gentle heat with my torch?????
TIA
