Without taking it apart. I'm working on getting my Boxxer back up and running, but it's been sitting for over a year, now the blower won't move I put WD in and let it sit for over a week still won't budge :x

I'll let you know my machine is at the supplier right now they were putting a new engine in it, then ran into this problem. I couldn't do it myself the machine had to be pulled,and the heat exachangers removed to clean them out. this will be the 3rd engine!! are you sure about this degreaser thing?

Yeah, it's been soaking in Kero for a couple of days now. If that doesn't work we'll try the other stuff
