Re: long bed

Engine was stuck from setting for 19 years. Soaked the cylinders with Kroil for 3 days
Finally got it to move a little, turned it back and forth with a prybar, until it turned a complete revolution.
Fired it up today off a temp tank. runs good no blowby or smoke and great oil pressure.
Just ordered a radiator with an electric fan. The one in it was a Mopar one

Re: long bed

Great deal on getting the engine un-stuck. You've had better luck than my dad and I with our old tractor that has a stuck motor
