Default RE: TWO separate engine problems

Will simply heating the area with heat gun work or does it really need to be started to loosen it up?

ORIGINAL: opjose

Do this before you send it out.

Put the prop back on the GMS engine.

Remove the glow plug and put a drop or two of fuel into the cylinder. Leave the glow plug off.

Now heat the cylinder head until it is almost too hot to touch with a heat gun.

Crank it over.
I am worried about heating it up with a heat gun with fuel in it, I'm liable to blow it up
