This time it's a stuck piston ring...

Ok, I've managed to get the piston pin clips under control.....I picked up all new rings, clips, and gaskets, only to run into my next problem. My lower piston ring is completely stuck on the piston. Any tips on how to get it off?

Spray with PB blaster(cant be good for seals, dont get iti n the case) and try tapping loose with wood block.
I am not a mechanic, nor do I play one on TV. Actually my advice is probably worth slightly less than what you pay to view it.
