Here's how my dad unstuck the engine on his Oliver 70. He backed another tractor up to it and, on both sides, wrapped a log chain around the front side of the rear wheel, then over the top of the rear wheel, then did the same on the tractor with the stuck engine. He then drove the other tractor forward, raising the rear wheels of the stuck tractor off the ground.

With the spark plugs removed in the stuck engine he then raised the front end of this tractor off the ground with a tractor front end loader, put he stuck tractor in road gear, an lowered the front end.

This left the stuck tractor suspended in midair on the other tractor. He put some kind of lubricant/rust penetrator? in the cylinders.

The next morning the front of the stuck tractor was on the ground and the engine was free.

I wasn't there to see this and, of course, he didn't take any pictures.

I have attached a crude drawing illustrating the process.
