my friends 87gtu has compression problems, and i was wondering if it was alright to put MMO or ATF into the leading spark plug holes, put the plugs back in, then take the eng inj. fuse out, turn it over (about how much?) let it sit for a day (or two) then should i either start it, or take the plugs out, and turn it over more....then start it?


is there any problem to doing it this way?

 

search for the atf trick , follow that.

by the way - no trick will cure a worn engine!

 

it is supposed to be rebuilt, its not worn

 

umm "my friends 87gtu " I think you mean GXL or maybe SE depending on the 4/5 lugs and 4/1 piston front brakes.

I'm not positive but 88 was the first year for the GTU(and best hehehe).

 

okay, thanks for the help...........................
