I have a Victa Commando 2 stroke mower that I found, sitting on the back burner for a while, that I finally got around to looking at today, only to find it seized up.
I opened the top of the crank case and there was some water on the bottom.
I wanted to undo the pin holding the rod to see if it is the piston or bearings causing the seize, but haven't got the special tool required to undo it.
I will try and make a tool out of metal tubing.
Mean time I have sprayed penetrant where I can and will try and spin it tomorrow.
I have a feeling someone has run it on straight fuel because I saw some fine metal shavings when I cleaned the crankcase out with a rag.
I will have to try and inspect the bore and piston for damage if I can get out to move out.
Any suggestions would be appreciated.
