Garfinkles Motor Works is on a distinguished road
One of my friends was buying engines from the junk yard and if they were rotating he would put brake fluid in the chambers and spin them by hand then with a starter leaving a spark plug out of each chamber .Some had low or no compression before doing this,most of them ran well after the cleaning .He had a test stand to put the motor and a tranny on .He would do the cleaning and start the engine on the stand .
