Scott, ? Do you want this engine loose in short order??? Then follow my instructions. the engine will be loose over the weekend!!! 1 Remove all tin work, gas tank, intake/exhaust, Valve cover, & Head, Pan. Remove and # Rod Caps. 2 roll tractor outside and double check to make sure there are no combustables near and no tree limbs close. Get a gallon of gas and 2 or 3 gallons of Diesel. a couple of 2x4 blocks and a good 4 or 5 lb machinist hammer. 3 Make a pot of coffee! 4 Now start ( 1 cylinder @ a time) with the cylinder that has the most Volume! pour in, to almost full with Diesel, add a splash of gas set the fuel mixture on fire. Pour a cup of coffee and let the mixture burn itself out. Now drive the piston out from the bottom. 5 Repeat with the cylinder that now has the most volume and repeat the #4 step. Note... As the volume decreases and the amt of rust increases you may need to repeat step 4, 2 or 3 or more time to get the engine freed up! Note 1, the Cup of Coffee step... is very inportant not to rush the burn and heat build up in the cylinder, it is what breaks up the rust that has seized up that engine in the first place Note 2, Cold Beer, can be substituted for the Coffee. BUT it has to be Super Cold though, Again not to rush the burn! LOL You get the idea, just be very careful with the gas and diesel & fire. Don't burn your barn or house down. Later John A.

The garden was already sprouting when we hooked up the mid-mount shovel cultivators to the Pony. The seed bed was soft enough that the rear end would spin and slowly work its way to the downhill side of the gardens slight incline. From this, we learned our lesson sinc
