bringing it back from the dead

I have an 87 rx7 2+2 auto it has been sitting for many years and now
i'm trying to revive it from the dead. I think that the engine has
rusted inside. To revome the rust what type of oil/alcohol should i
use, but nothing to ruin the seals?

Thank you,

Mike in Saint Louis

Aye... You can do the ATF trick. Do a search for "ATF trick" on www.rx7club.com and you can find a good explanation of what this does and how it can revive a "dead" motor. Good luck.

Use Magic Marvel Mystery oil and soak it good. You might get lucky.
