So IT WAS YOU thats been at one of my . 46's ! ( anyone want a cheap 21/46 ?
)
Ive found with engines stored from the Jurasic Period , periodically boiling And C R C ing them , say four times over a fortnite MINIMUM
and ' a positive disposition ' afterward , they will disassemble ( almost ) unharmed IF YOUR CAREFULL .
A Leather Strap on a stick to rotate a iron fin sleeve possably safest . The Easy Outs should pull a gudgeon , after the GUNK set has been SOFTENED ,
Rotateing it first. Carefully . Like You Say , the liner bottom just over the pin , will suport the piston , whilst you do your worst . Being Carefull of the ring .
The HEAT CYCLES seem to be the trick , for the penetration of whatever , and TIME to soften whatevered baked / solidified Castor Oil .
The Query was just as one of these Californians seemed stuck (
) for a cure . ( not ME on U Tube ) .
Best pulling the Gugeon / Wrist pin - but usually ?? Ridges of ' coked castor ' & or Corrosion on the pin makes it awkward to start moving . Thanks for the hits .
Think its a bit excessive drilling it , personally , But you can Helicoil a V W Bug head by cutting a flap in the inner fender , after removing a wheel , if you havnt time to pull the engine .
