My dad (after the fact) said first thing I should have done was take the valve covers off hit each rocker arm to make sure none of the valves were stuck. Sparkplugs back in, some gas down the carb, and it started but ran on 7 cylinders. Couple of smacks with a sledge hammer and it spun over. No luck, so made a contraption that slid under the car and engaged the teeth of the ring gear. I had a stuck engine (327 Chevy) and tried several ways of breaking it loose including soaking the cylinders and trying to "rock" the engine back and forth with a socket/breaker bar, and bumping the starter. Fill it 'till it comes out of the spark plug holes and screw the sparkplugs back in a couple of turns to prevent evaporation. I agree with the ATF/Diesel/Acetone mix although Kroil Oil would be the best, but as pointed out expensive.īeing a V8 (I assume) a few tablespoons down the cylinder isn't going to be much help as will puddle on the bottom of the cylinder wall, a couple of tablespoons would work on a inline/L head though.
