Just make sure you take your time and dont rush and you should be fine.
Lots of oil, Kano labs sells Kroil. I use it every day on engines that are rusty from non-use and sitting outside, great stuff! PB Blaster is more readily available, still pretty good, just use lots of it!
Thanks for all the advise guys! I feel a bit more comfortable doing this now worse thing happens i can go get my buddy from up the road. hes great at this stuff.
