This is the second and last one that I have this issue with on this engine, last one I put on the stove top and cooked it until I was able to get the carbon and varnish to release enough to get the rings out, although in pieces. That is no issue.. However, this one, the top ring isn't coming loose at all. Almost have the second ring out, but the top isn't giving at all. Been keeping it in a water/detergent bath, but might have to let it get dry I guess to get it hot enough. Any other ideas?
While I am at it, how about stuck motors? I have one I might try to save, but the plugs have been out for years, and it is sitting out side. Any way to clean the rust out enough to get the pistons out? If the block has to be bored, that can be done, but have to get the pistons to move.
