Dont do anything he says, throw in some penetrating oil after attempting to move the engine, let it sit for a day, and then repeat until it is free, if you use a hammer or any shock force, you stand the chance of leaving gashes in the cylinder as well as the sleeves
never strike 2 hammers together
Put METAL RESCUE in it!!!
how about buying a new cylinder head? and i mean it like i say. because in y young, 17 year old mind, its that simple. just off-screw the old cylinder head and make or buy a new one. or is it different with a seized piston?
Heat the barrels !
From the outside, with alot bigger torch !
Throw it in the bin!
Personally, the only idea in my mind, if the engine was seized, would be to dismantle the whole engine, and any stuck areas can then be freed, given time etc. I certainly wouldn't dream of whacking anything….
have you tried putting it off an on again?
I freed my buddy's seized supra engine once. What I did was i took off the spark plugs, sprayed a good amount of WD40..removed the drain plug (it had little oil left, w/c was the reason it seized in the first place), sprayed WD40 where ever I could get it on the crank and conrods. Let it set for a 10-15 minutes, push-cranked the car (spark plugs still off) in 4th, voila!
Never strike hammers together, that's hardened steel and one little fleck in the eye means a trip to the emergency room to have your eyeball drilled.
is your clutch also seized??
What about first letting the cylinders soak in penetrating oil for a day or two?
do u pour the marvel mystery oil just straight on the headers or?
Basic tutorial how to fuck up your cylinder. (heating/hammering it)
could pour some gas in the cylinder and let it burn
No…No Dont do this…everything you're doing is going to end up causing more damage. yeah you might get the pistons out but you're going to bend something or break a cooling fin or chip your cylinder wall…Nooooooooooooooooooooo
very clever aren't you NOT.you going on about having the gloves and yet you such a knob that you working in shorts.
what a prick.gonna put the flame on the outside cylinder wall and he goes straight inside what a prick.
if you follow this channel you motorcycle won't last very long doing the stupid things he shows.
I just bought a 1974 Honda cb 360 that sat in the garage for 35 years it was seized up very bad I used mystery oil pulled the plugs and filled the cylinder left it over night 'the next day I put a bar on the stator moved it back and forth a couple times till it blew out the oil then put the plugs back in and put gas in the tank and gave it a boots it started right pu 'now it runs perfect it will star with only one kick or just hit the start button it runs like a new one .
good vidio
This will work, but you need patients. Many years ago I had a 1953 MG TD sports car, the previous owner blew the engine and replaced it with a four cylinder Triumph engine. The engine got some moisture in it after sitting for months without starting and the engine seized. I ended up pulling the head and basically did what he did in the video. I repeated this over and over every 3-4 days for a month. I would rock the car back and forth while in first gear. Finally she broke loose. I put it all back together and it ran like a top for the next couple of years until I sold it.
