I recently obtained a couple of solidly locked up engines, A Cox Blackwidow, and an AM 25 diesel. I got them both free and runable with Rislone. I did have to take the tank off the Blackwidow to free up the reed. There was an amazing amount of crud on the reed. Generally on a reed engine, if you can get Rislone down the venturi, the reed will almost immediately free up. I have run the engine several times and it is fine.
On the AM 25, I got the piston free enough, with Rislone in the exhaust, and venturi, to take advantage of the sub piston induction and get a healthy dose of Rislone into the case. In a few minutes this freed up the crank. I did not disassemble the engine, but let it sit overnight, head down, with Rislone inside the piston, and up against the contrapiston. Next morning the contrapiston was nice and free. It feels good and I will run it when I get around to it.
