Got one in that the cylinders, 2,3,and 4 seem to have a lot of rust/dirt in them. It tries to start but because of the dirt and rust fouls out the 3 plugs before it can start up. Short of pulling the head how can a guy get this stuff out of the cylinders?? By the way this is an an Allis D-17. I've filled the cylinders with oil and turn it over with out the plugs in, also did that with gas, then carb cleaner and PB. So far nothing is working to clean them out enough to get it to fire up. Any body got some other ideas. If I could turn it over by hand I'd just get each cylinder to the point the exhaust valve was open and pout oil in the exhaust manifold but I can't do that at this time. Thanks for any ideas be them good bad or just plain crazy.
