freeing a seized tractor motor
We just got a Minneapolis-Moline RTN tractor that had been sitting for a few years. Here in the rain coast rust happens pretty quick.
We pulled the plugs and put some gas and two cycle oil in ( just what we had on hand at the time)
and tried to spin the motor by rocking the tractor in gear while pushing and pulling on the rear tires
Any hot tips you guys have to speed the process.
Welcome to CHR. I think that you need to hook up your vacuum advance. At part throttle when cruising you have less air and fuel in each cylinder, and the air-fuel mixture is not as densely packed...
