Default RE: os 55 ax connecting rod problem

I use my 55 in an extreme flight chin yak. Have ran around 5 to 8 gallons through it. Noticed it making a little bit of a strange sound tonight. After inspection I found the rist pin seized to the rod. soaked in tranny fluid and got loose. Think it may have rusted or gummed. my bad. Gonna put back together and let eat.
but whatever
cheers

FYI If you cannot get your rod off crank pin it,s because the rods seized forward on wrist pin!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
