Pulling apart that Aluminum case 2.0 motor in anticipating to sell it and cant seem to get one of the heads off.
Motor has been sitting for 20 plus years and rotates freely. 4 heads came off with a little more than a ketchup bottle thump. 1 head came off with the cylinder attached The other one, wont seem to budge. Made sure all washers were removed. been soaking with PB Blaster for a couple of days BTW: motor had been sitting for several years and a mouse had made a nest on top of that particular cylinder. Hence - Mouse motor... Any suggestions? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif) Attached thumbnail(s) |

Hmm.. Will have to post photo of universal cat carrier (IMG:style_emoticons/default/lol-2.gif) just as humor Disclaimer - no animals were harmed (IMG:style_emoticons/default/sheeplove.gif) in producing this thread, however, a few brain cells may have been damaged during the solution of this problem. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beer3.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/headbang.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beer3.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/headbang.gif) Fiddled with the motor some more. Checked for extra washer, pulled pistons from other side. Rotated offending cylinder to tdc and soaked with pb blaster. Screwed in leak down testing tool and applied 100 psi. Nice leak from exhaust side.... That's right, this is the dead cylinder (IMG:style_emoticons/default/headbang.gif) Tapped around with bigger mallet and 2x4. Got slight movement. Appears top right head stud is corroded to the head. I can twist the head 2-3 mm but it is bound to the stud Soaking again tonight and may have to cut the head stud (IMG:style_emoticons/default/sawzall-smiley.gif) Unless someone knows how to dissolve rust caused by mouse piss (IMG:style_emoticons/default/av-943.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/agree.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/WTF.gif) |
