HE said it was outside for one winter but covered up and should be fine inside. All the head bolts were finger tight and this is what I found when I took it apart. #7 piston and rod were missing. I still haven't gotten the pistons to move, and it's been soaking for months with a lot of banging.

Verne, would an old fashioned caustic hot tanking melt the original pistons out of the bores?
