One way I have heard of is to put a zerk fitting in a sparkplug and gradually apply pressure. Grease is thicker than oil and can push pretty hard. A bit of prayer, luck, common sense, and time goes a long way with this method. It has taken a long time to seize up....give it some time to free up. It has more force of habit than us old guys

Any ideas? this machine was in my basement when I bought the house in 1980 and I have no idea what its history is.
Thanks, Frank.
