UTS Stuck Engine

Levi S · Mar 7, 2023

I have an early model UTS with the one piece head and to my knowledge its been sitting for roughly 30 years and is locked tight, ill still try to soak the cylinders for a while but I have yet to find a specific rebuild kit or set for the one piece head, any help or ideas would be appreciated.

I don't believe there is a kit, call Welters in MO, they'll help you and ship. 417-498-6496

Have done many of the solid block U's. Any stuck were block problem or head. KTA uses same block and head. Good head can be hard to locate. Many were cracked.

I had a stuck KTA that I freed up last
summer. I soaked it also with no luck.
When I removed the head I was glad I did
because the valves needed new seats, plus
one guide.
I didn't rework the cylinders or rings. It
now starts easily and runs fairly well.
Some blue smoke but for what I do it's
fine. I just keep some new plugs on hand.

Thank you for the contact, they have a gasket set and I will probably pull the head and give it a look, if I don't need to pull the rotating assembly then I wont, just want to save her from the scrapers torch.
