Default Re: Model A motor froze-up

Do yourself a favor and pull the engine, the cost will most likely be a gasket set. Pulling, pounding and twisting are a great way to make a good engine into a bad engine. Rebuilds are very expensive and you will kick yourself if you ruin the engine in an effort to break it loose. After such a long time sitting, you need to pull the oil pan at the very least and clean the dip tray of sludge and or water. It's really not that hard and if the parts are all serviceable, it will go back together without too much trouble and run for many years.
