RE: 18TZ
Your engine is a nice and tight one. The only way to make it easier to turn over until it becomes well-broken-in is to use a heat gun to loosen the piston/cylinder fit. If you tried a heat gun and it didn't work well, then either it wasn't used long enough to heat the engine, or the heat gun isn't hot enough on its own. A hair dryer won't work because it won't make enough heat.
