For stuck lifters and general cleaning before a tare down/rebuild I always used automatic trans fluid or even better yet, Marvel Mystery Oil if they still make it!
Good luck,
Bob

No, thats not what I was thinking off, sorry. I'll think of it sooner or later.

You may want to try and just put in some clean 10/30 oil and see if that helps.

Jay did the SeaFoam treatment... That cleaned it out...
I'll change the oil & add my favorite... ProLong. They were a sponsor when we ran the 'Cup car & then on the Modified. The latter blew a radiator hose with two laps to go. We did 2 laps with a temp of 500 degrees and post race tear-down revealed no damage



Good stuff
