I have been down both roads...with those that are stuck just a little...then the concoctions mentioned are helpful...but occasionally, you get a good one and you simply are not going to get the piston out by soaking...It has rusted in there so bad that it is just like a weld. When that happens, you can count on the sleeve being bad when you get it out...so badly pitted etc that it is worthless. You can follow the directions regarding the holes and saw or you can do the holes and burn it--that is melt with the electrc welder and special rod. The directions below about separating are good...and I want to only caution you that the front end is very heavy. I like to take the radiator off...and hook the front wheels to a hoist then remvoe the rails...after blocking up the rear section. Then remove the rails. Get your hoist attached to the engine then remove the bolts 4 +2...one outside and one inside the starter housing. The last one I took apart that was really stuck...I wound up pushing the piston and sleeve both out of the engine from the bottom. I dont think anyone responded but the clutch and all comes off with the motor.

Good luck...this is an aggivaton!!!
