I bought a decent looking VAC Case that has been setting outside for 10 or 12 years. After finally getting fire and much cleaning of the fuel tank and carburator, I finally got it started. Sounds pretty good except no compression on the 2nd cylinder. It did not smoke at all. The motor was not stuck but I think maybe the ring is stuck. Would it be possible to let it soak in something like Marvel Mystery oil for about 2 months and possibly free it up or might I just go ahead and tear into it. Thought it might be worth a shot. Anyone had any luck with this?
