hi Cuz!!
yeah, i know, but i was just messin' around with it, and sure was surprised
about it being that stuck. they started the new shop today, so i am gonna
wait till it's done [2 weeks or so], and do the job in much better
surroundings. [no more leaking, creaking, leaning, drafty 'ol barn! woohoo!]

Andy...hard to tell what it is but if I was you (sitting on the porch sippin
Batts with your canadian cousin) I would pull the engine and inspect before
I did anything. More than likely the cylinders will need replacing and
bearings etc...should be inspected. You can do this easily enough.
Ciao...Ian
