Hi I have a 1954 f100 with 223 and 3spd. motor is stuck. I tried the marvel mystery oil but no luck yet . What's the best way to go with out puttin alot of money in it? Im goin for a fifties hot rod look , wanted to keep engine original but if not so be it. I have extra body parts if anyone needs any . Thanks

 

what exactly did you do ?? just dump the mmo in and let it set ?? did you try turning by hand ??? rocking the truck in gear ?? rolling it and popping the clutch ???

if it's stuck that bad...it wouldn't hurt to try ???

I put the mmo in a couple of days ago .
I tried turning it with a pipe and it never moved . When I get some tires on it I will try to rock it and stuff. I dont know if its even worth savin or not ,it sat for 10 years without plugs in it.

 

Have a look at this link to a thread from a few days ago. It's exactly what you're looking for.

With the plugs out that long, though, I wouldn't get my hopes up too high.

I had an olds 425 engine that I could not get broke loose that had set for seven years without running. I tried every penetrating stuff that you can think of. Finally I pulled the engine, removed the crank and took a block of oak and four pound sledge and drove the pistons out the bottom of the block,,,last resort. It was only one or two that were frozen in the block.
