When I pulled the heads off of a spare engine, three of the four cylinders stayed stuck to the head. I sprayed them with penetrating oil, waited a day, then beat on them with a hammer. Still stuck. Any ideas on how to get these unstuck (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif)

I think I did this once by holding the cylinder tightly with both hands (wearing gloves) with the head hanging down about an inch over something soft so the head wont get damaged when the head comes loose. Then have a helper put a block of wood through the bottom of cylinder up against the combustion chamber and gently tap around the inside to work it off with the help of gravity.
