Hi,
I'm a new Afourian due to the fact that my engine seized. I enjoy reading here and followed the advice - put Kroil in the spark plug holes and wait. But my 4 and 3 plug holes are full of oil, so that means the oil hasn't flowed into the cylinder, is this correct?
My question is is there any other way to turn the flywheel as it means cutting wood to get my starter off? and (2) is it possible to turn the flywheel when the access is from the side? (So that the screwdriver would be perpendicular to the engine block, rather than access from the water pump side with the screwdriver parallel to the block, where I have 4 inches of working space)
I like working on the engine but this is more than I bargained for.
Thanks Paul W Berkeley CA, MV "Mojo"
