ATF. Do the ATF treatment first. It might help restore some power. The ATF helps break up carbon that might cause seals to stick. Do a search first for a detailed how-to. Its pretty easy.

Marvel's Mystery Oil, put a tiny bit in your gas occasionally, works. (I could tell a difference after a few treatments)

First pour in ATF. If that doesn't work, pour in dollars!

The best thing you can pour into your engine that will cure it for sure is about 2,000 dollars.

Anything else is not a permanant fix.

NO.

i think your best bet is to get some of the engine cleaner from home depot called expanding insulation foam. spray some of that in through your spark plug holes and rotate the engine at the same time. it'll clean it right up and put your compression up too

or i found this site that has the absolute best info about how to clean and increase compression.. click here

ATF will hep you start it BUT if the apex seals and springs are bad once the atf burns off (About 5 minutes after starting) you will have the same problem over and over. Just overhaul the engine don't risk loosing the rotor housings. Use hurley apex seals and springs they last a long time.
