Hello,
I made a thread a couple days ago and got great responses, so I figured I come here to ask another question.
I’ve been reading and studying a lot about engines. I watched several YouTube videos on rebuilding engines and I’m pretty confident I can rebuild an old engine, such as a Ford 8N.
My question is, what if the engine is completely stuck, as in, I cannot turn it over by hand? In that case, if I complete disassembly the engine, will I be able to fix it, even if it means replacing more parts like new pistons? I think as long as the engine turns over, however, I should be able to get it running, maybe just with some new gaskets and a thorough cleaning.
Right now I’m in the learning phase of tractors, and since I’m 18 years old, I have a lot to learn. I’m trying to soak up as much knowledge as possible.
Thanks,
John
