I never pulled the head off , just turned the engine over on a stand and removed the crankshaft. I've been told by other techs that when some LP engines sit for awhile the rings will stick one the pistons and they use transmission fluid the loosen them up. And I've tried that but it doesn't seem to help. Just trying to see if anyone else has run into this and what they did to solve the problem.
