4Dantheman, how are things coming along for you? Curious minds want to know.


8x4600..... have a 281 that was stuck. Soaked it for about 3 weeks using the ATF/Diesel mixture then marvel. Oops, all this was after 3-4 day soak of Kroil.

Like you, I did get the engine to turn but only about 1/3 turn then dead stop....back the other way, dead stop. Pulled head, pulled lifters and still the same thing.
Pulled pan and #2 rod bearing was uh, well, trash. Hope you don't have the same problem with a rod bearing. After I pulled the cap the engine turned fine. What a learning experience.
Still having fun though and engine is ready to go back in "tinkerbell".

I'd rather walk and carry a Chevy hub cap than ride in a Ferd.
I can explain it to you, but I can't understand it for you smile
