- Scott Tanner... Can't even see the Cub in this mess..
Don T,
I used electrolysis... for the rust, but dang, it took the paint off too!!
A barrel with the washing soda, battery charger, dip 1/2 at a time will have that paint and rust free in 2 days... no sweat or chemicals...

I don`t have a big enuf bucket to do the parts that I want done.I wonder if the wife would notice our 24 foot round pool could have another use, wonder how much baking soda I would need

Ladies and Gentlemen-
I hate to say it but I'm having to part out a 125 (sorry Kraig). It's just tooooo far gone...a rust bucket for sure. I removed the engine today and got 8 of the 9 head bolts out but can't budge the one. And yall know where it is...right beside the exhaust. I don't want to break it and have tried lots of PB, heat and even pounded on the head with a brass hammer. It's more like heavy tapping, not pounding. I've tried two different 1/2" impact wrenches with no results. The bolt on the other side of the exhaust had a powder-like substance all the way down the threads. I've never seen that before.
It's a good block and can't see just letting it get rained on (no room in the barn for cripples) so the engine will go in a shed for now.
Any and all will be appreciated.....Wayne

How about a small chunk of C4 or maybe some Thermite ??
Maybe you will get fortunate now and some PB or other product will wick down there and loosen things.
