I would loosen the rod and main bearing caps. I used tranny juice on a stuck Farmall A and I got
it apart. The head was already off when I bought
the tractor.

I have seen postings on here to jack up one rear wheel and put the transmission in high gear and then rock the wheel. I've never did this, but it may work. Water may have entered the cylinders
through the exhaust if the tractor was unsheltered. I used a piece of 2X2 maple to drive out the pistons. I only used the old rods
and a new sleeve kit.

You may need to do this to inspect the sleeves and pistons if the engine can not be freed. Hal
