I got our family’s 60 back going. It was slightly stuck. I let it soak in PB blaster and some Marvell and I just put my truck in gear and just the small pull of the truck without throttle got it spinning again. Wasn’t stuck bad. I let it soak in Marvell for about a week spinning by hand to lube up the best it could. Got it started. Smoked like that really bad the first time. Cleared up after the Marvell and stuff was cleared out. Love these old tractors

Just fired up a 1941 B that was Sruck. Used ATF in the cylinders and left it for a week before I could turn it. Hand started it today as it doesn't have an electric starter. 82 years old and hasn't run in a few years but did today.

I used a grease gun to free a stuck Case tractor engine but filled the cylinder with AFT first then only used the grease gun to pressurize it. It worked well because of a hyd. pump on the front and a torque converter drive I had no direct way to turn the engine. On the JD you could not fill the compete cylinder with ATF because of the horizontal engine but you could fill part if it. I recently broke free a John Deere 50 that took three things, it took some penetrant, heat and bruit force. I heated the block to about 250Fwith a heat gun in the water jacket, then let it cool. It runs good now.

Brake clean was probably not the best thing to soak the cylinders in to get rid of the grease. Had the cylinder only been oily, you'd scoured up the cylinders more so than they already were pretty quick. The grease probably saved you alot of trouble with that. And if you haven't found out already, don't use those horizontal cylinder deeres on normal PTO driven equipement, you'll shear alot of shear pins under load, which is one reason I don't care to use those tractors. Sounded pretty healthy once she fired though!
