Once it's busted loose you should be able to check all the parts over and just replace what you need. Should be able to find plenty of used B parts from guys on here.

Do you think it possible, that if I can un-stuck the lower end, maybe could get by with only replacing one p-rod and one valve? Baring, the rest of p-rods are really straight? Miles, I notice you have CO/Ks as your local. What part of KS? Oh ya, the guy I got B from said he tried to pull start a couple years ago. Oh well.

Maybe the parts got bent at some point if someone tried to pull the tractor and drop the clutch to break the engine free. Just a guess.

Welcome to the forum! This is the greatest place to find information and knowledge on AC tractors there is! what I have found that works for releasing stuck pistons is 50/50 ATF/Acetone mix. Just sent you a PM. Miles

Hi all. Last week I had a SN vin year ? and thanks to A-C (unofficial) members we figured it to be a 1940. Someone gave it to me and every thing is there. Has a hydra loader. It hasn't run for a couple years. Prior owner left the exhaust flap off the vertical riser. Of course, internal engine saturated, seezed, bent push rod and valve etc. Anyway, I pulled the oil pan and it has minimal oxidation on lower end components. I think the water sitting on pistons in the cyl. some how bled by rings and rusted them to cyl. wall? I have filled the entire block w/ oil and also have the oil sitting on top of pistons. Looks like I'll keep. fix and use my little B, Why would you think the p-rod and valve bent? So, I'm tearing down the motor and fixing. Would welcome any info on best place to shop for parts.
