    If you have a Rowboat motor project and the cylinder is a "one of a kind" and very hard to find ( to replace )
    I never, never, never would use a grease gun.
    do you know how high you can blow up the pressure ? 😯
    you will not be the first with a broken cylinder.
    heat it up, cool it down, heat it up, cool it down, a.s.o. with penetration oil and a lot of patience.
    if you have an aluminium piston which has a lot of powder corrosion, it is probably stuck for ever 🙁
    BUT YOU CAN ALWAYS TRY
