Fuel Distributor Problem - Was fine, now piston frozen
I am fearing the worst and I may have screwed up.
I started a maintenance project 4 months ago. I carefully removed the Fuel Distributor and cleaned. Probably should not have used carb cleaner. The piston moved freely and slowly. After cleaning, I put into a Ziploc bag and it has been sitting for 4 months.
Last night, I got out the fuel distributor and the piston is not moving. It's frozen in place and is not budging. I tried blowing into the fuel inlets but it's stuck. I soaked overnight with PB Blaster and no luck.
Is there anything I can due short of replacing the fuel distributor? The car was running well and this had no prior issues. Can I squirt PB blaster or something else into the fuel inlets in hopes to get oil onto the other side of the piston. Can I open up the fuel distributor without causing more problems?
Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
