I posted this in another forum but was told it would be better here. As some of you may know I'm repairing a plane that I inherited after my Father-in-law died. I decided to tackle the engine tonight. I wanted to do a complete tear-down. The engine was completely frozen from years of not being used or cared for. I used a gun cleaning oil (it was all I had) and with the help of a strong screwdriver was finally able to get it turning freely. I can see that the rear bearings need help if not replacing all together. This is where I got stuck. I cannot get the con rod off the crankshaft so that I can pull the piston and crankshaft. I also cannot get the front bearing out. How do I get them off/out?
