Re: Removing stuck pistons
[QUOTE]Many, and I do mean many years ago, you could get 2-5% tincture of Iodine. Pour it in the hole, and let it soak. Some reason unknown to me, it will soften up the rust and you will be able to knock out the piston. Old farmers would use it on their machinery to break loose nuts./QUOTE]
interesting idea!! I did some research on it and it seems to be a valid approach. There were patent applications on it back in the 30s.
