You guys need a solid block of hardwood about the same diameter as the piston. Place it end on on the piston and hit the top of the wood with a sledgehammer. Works every time!

Looking forward to more! Thank you for the extra explanation. Great video.

Good progress. I’ve done one D4 with a tight engine years ago and have another early one waiting. I cleaned the liners up with sunken hone, new rings, reused head gasket. I used conventional o-rings one liners. They were too narrow for groove so I filled void with silicon and let cure before a fresh film of silicone on o-ring just before installing. The liners will do just fine with some fine pitting. I’m kind of cheap or frugal, what ever you want to call it. All I bought were the piston rings and liner o- rings. Everything worked out and it runs good. I’m going to subscribe and keep watching.

Cool man, I’ll come along for the ride.

good show fellers,new scriber from NC....I saw a video once where the used comp.air to free up a cylinder,i dont think it woulda worked in your case though,anyway,good luck,i be watching for the next one....stay safe

Two weeks ago ? SNOW IN JULY ??? Canada ? great video. thanks

Wish I was there with you guys. Did it for a living say forty years ago. Seventy three now, started for dad in the fifties.... born with a wrench in hand was the standing joke.

Pour 50/50 mix acetone and automatic transmission oil into cylinders and let sit for several days to see if will brake engine free

This one will need a lot of work ! When using the log and sledge hammer on a piston , Be careful that the engine doesn't start on you ! Ha Ha

It still might have a stuck Cam Follower, as it seemed to stop the rotation fairly quickly. I missed the bit where you needed to park it on a hill top...!

40:04 at this point I say slam the head back on and see what it does.

Use ATF MIXED with acitone

Try a torpedo heater to heat that engine up to a summer temperature to help the the oil to creap where it needs to go.

It is surprising how well beer can save the day if the clearance is too loose. Dont recommend it and you have to make sure everything is not way out of round and journal is clear.

The rings dont always rust sometimes just rust on the cylinder walls

Would be worth getting the valves closed pump a bunch of greas in to pop it lose then flush it out with kerosene

E só muito trabalho a migo 👏

Need to warm it up,

I would of only put diesel in that cylinder would of moved no problem just can't be in a hurry thats all
