I just got a frozen engine heater valve to move.
After I heard about how hard it is to unfreeze a water valve, I decide to
tackle mine. I removed it from the engine, beat on it with the wooden handle
of screwdriver and it budged mm. I then soaked it with 3 in 1 oil and let
it soak for most of the day. Hit it again with the wooden handle and not it
moved freely. I can hold it one hand and actuate the valve easily.
One more task completed......
Still waiting on the carbs......
