AC B re-ring or full rebuild?

Posted by ACReddfalcon on February 08, 2016 at 06:43:18 from (155.70.39.45):

Hey folks, looking for some advice from guys that know. Im new to the whole tractor thing, picked up a "hand crank only" AC model B. guy told me it should have ran, upon inspection motor was seized, couldn't break it lose via drag and drop clutch. I ended up having to tear it completely down to pound the pistons out, I now have it gutted and am in the process of running parts through the parts washer. Bottom end was all original and everything seems to be good. a bit of wear on 2 of the piston sides and the sleaves are nice minus the top of one has some corrosion/rust. My question is, should I bite the bullet and do a full rebuild on this bad boy or should I just throw some new rings in it and reassemble? Because its a hand crank, what are some things I want to be sure are in good working order to ensure easy starts? Thanks in advance for any replies!
