I'm planning on trying something new to me, here are some pictures of the ignitor and various rusty parts. My plan is to remove the rust and loosen the stuck pieces with electrolysis.
Here is the electrolysis start
Here it is 6 hours in……...
Here is the finished product. While it did not "free it up" it certainly took care of the rust and made getting it apart easier than it would have been without electrolysis.
Here is what it looked like 16 hours in, I cleaned off the steel plate a few times during the process.
Here are a couple shots of the head one before, and one after electrolysis. The valve stems are in pretty rough shape so I will be making new ones soon.
My plan is to leave the block intact and just clean it up. This engine won't be getting a fancy paint job like some of my others. I plan on leaving this on in its "Working Clothes"
