I posted a few days ago about my Super 88 Oliver that is stuck. Tractor has been in a barn out of the weather for 4 or 5 years. Ran when I put it in the barn. Had to stick from condensation.
Now for my question: I have the cylinders soaking with penetrating fluid, transmission fluid, diesel fuel, etc. I jacked up one of the rear wheels and attached a stick of square tubing about 12 feet long to the wheel by bolting it to the hub bolts in the center of the wheel. Then I put the tractor in road gear and placed a couple of concrete blocks on the end of the square tubing. The blocks are approximately 3 feet off the ground. When I moved the square tubing up and down the wheel that was not jacked up and was sitting on the ground spun in the opposite direction of the wheel that was jacked up. What do I need to do to make the leverage from the square tubing transfer to the engine, rather than spinning the wheel that is not jacked up and is sitting on the ground??
