Unseizing an engine without pulling it

An old vf1100 Sabre I just unstuck the engine in -- without having to pull the engine

Will this work with any engine? Also, how will it run when you are done?

@yellowrotorway Seems to work pretty good on most aluminum engines -- every now and again you get one with a stuck ring and have to re-ring em but not too often - They generally run pretty good - give em fresh oil, run em 1/2 hour and change it right away again is my usual 'post process'

Hey man, what happened to that Sabre? Did ya ever put the super charger and fuel injection on it? By the way the V4 is one of the best motors ever made.

@dewwed1965 Ive got another one - first one failed - using titanium head studs and a descent set of head gaskets this time - 84 VF1000 base this time though Its on the back burner till I get ahead enough on other projects or just have spare time here and there

@iflynitro ok u win haha big boom if it lights and nice vid

[dawino6260]

@iflynitro Still wouldn't light off.... That stuff takes a flame for a minute or so to light off

@dawino6260 what if u drop it haha

That's pretty slick (pardon the pun). I've poured diesel down spark plug holes but have never seen this used. Cool.

[dawino6260]

@iflynitro You mean diesel mixed with Marvel mystery oil -- it aint gas and you'd have to hold a flame to it quite a while to get it to light

[iflynitro]

and ur smoking a cig when theres gas around

nice
