Starting rebuild

[dansluck]

Finished tearing down a 1930 engine. Pistons were frozen, used pentrating oil for a month but ended up breaking them to get'em out. Rods OK. Put engine in trash can with Purple degreaser. We will see what a week soaking will do. I plan to work on the crank next. Adding weights from Bert's.
Thanks Dan

The engine in my huckster was in the same shape when I had it rebuilt. The fellow also had to break them to get them out but now the engine runs great. Also the engine number matches the frame number-original engine!
