8N Stuck engine
My ole 8N was running great years ago when I parked in the barn and lost track of how much time went by. So it is time to move on and I am looking at resurrectioin and selling it. Darn if the engine seems stuck. When I put it in 4th and high on the sherman and rock it back and forth the motor doesn't budge. I did not find a search window and went thru the available windows and struck out. Is there a search mode on this board and if so would someone please point me to it. Thanks

Dave, we have a tutorial in our How-To's library that shows another person's way of resolving this.

Never experienced this myself, but many posts on this and other sites about using Marvel Mystry Oil. Remove the spark plugs a put MMO in each hole and every few days try to free up motor.
