I do not have any A/C  cars, so I can't answer the question. Lots of stuff used 
to unstick engines includingATF. Always include VV  also as others want to see 
the progress made.

while trying to turn           the key? Some are just a bit out of adjustment.

Thanks Mike. I keep the car in a barn in Stroudsburg that I have     converted. 
I'm in West Caldwell. When I'm next there I'm sure I'll     get that hood open. 
The three combustion chambers on the drivers     side had corrosion on the plug 
electrodes and chamber tip. Shinning     a flashlight into the plug hole I 
thought that I saw more corrosion.     I put about an once of that Engine 
release stuff in the passenger     side chambers and about 3-4 ounces on the 
drivers side. Just sent an     email to the "Engine Release" people asking about 
it. Their     instructions say product must cover the top of the piston but how     
can that be done with a Corvair engine in the car? Another question     that I 
had was about the a/c. It doesn't have factory hose ends to     the condenser. 
It has hose clamps. Is that normal?
