I took the Cylinder out of the electrolysis bath, and soaked it with WD40 for a day, heated cycled the piston a couple of times to draw WD40 in as it cooled. Cut a block of wood to size and gave it a tap with a mallet. It moved! Unfortunately it is too late to make lots of noise, so further progress will have to wait until tomorrow....
I'm really impressed with how de-rusted the parts are after their bath, they come out black, but that comes off easily with the wire brush leaving pristine parts (with a few pits where the rust was).
I wasn't going to paint the engine during this restoration. Was going to leave it in as found condition, but since I've had to clean one cylinder, it would look a bit odd if I had one clean cylinder and the other aged paint and oil....
BTW - It's a grey blue colour, is that a stock Lister colour?
Thanks Samo
