Question Other then ATF, what is a good substitute for MMO?

Guys, in the short term, I need something other then ATF that will do the same thing as MMO.

I have been trying to clean out my 13B N/A and free a stuck apex seal...

With all of the carb cleaner that I have poured into this engine, there is no way that I would risk turning it over faster then by hand, there is not enough lubrication left to protect things or form a good seal. I need to do a compression check to check if I the cleaing has been successful.

This weekend I need to determine if the engine will work or if it come out for a rebuild!

The dirty rotter's don't sell MMO in Canada any more!

As for ATF, I wanted something that would continue with the cleaning process but help seal the rotors for a compression check (the engine is just about a bare block, but still in the car), the oil injection lines are not currently connected.
