thinking stuck apex seals hopefully
ok. here we go. i got a 85 gsl, and the antifreeze seals are shot, because i pulled a plug and seen antifreeze on it. and its blowing radiator hoses too. so i figured its done....... well now ive found a 83gsl for cheap. i just pulled engine today and cranked it with a tool , plugs out on top of housings. basically checking for compression before i put it in my 85, and not to much compressin in front but alot in rear.now i pulled bottom plugs to see if all the apexs were there and they wewr in good shape still shiny. but for some reason in the front rotor they seemed a little inword. and its been sitting for 7 years. so do any of you think a little pb blaster would eventually break these free?????? or would it help to just put it in my car then try to push it with another car to warm it up to hot then the heat will prolly make the gummed up seal finally grab the housing???? im almost positive engine just needs a old breakin since its been sitting so long. please help. ive had 19 of these cars and a psh start always fires them up after sitting like this.........
