Every tractor I've ever bought has a stuck engine. I was thinking of buying an F-20 with a loose engine this week and thought, what fun would that be. I love taking a stuck engine and over coming the obstacles to get it unstuck. No better feeling in the world once you separate those lovely pistons from the sleeves. When I’m having a rough day and wishing I were in the shop. I just drop in on this forum and it takes me to a happier place. Hard to believe I restore these old beauties for stress therapy.

I enjoy hearing everyone’s recipes for freeing up an engine.
