Don what I was meaning is when it's too tied up to run. When theyre all gummed up and wont turn you can fill them with diesel and turn the crank with a pipe wrench it'll break them loose. Once theyre cleaned out and turning again ATF might be a good idea too though. Id never run one one filled with diesel fuel.
