Got my 9 yr old son to help me get some MMO in the cylinders of a couple spare stovebolt engines. Also some penetrating oil down the valves. Good lesson for him on how an internal combustion engine works. Could see things starting to click. One of these two motors will be a winter tear down/ maybe rebuild project for me and the kids....if I can come up with an engine stand and locate a few parts.

Tonight I got some bolts into the flywheel mount holes to provide a way to turn over with a bar. The 235 turns completely. 216 turns but has a tight spot...will give it some more soak time.
