<VV> Freeing a stuck motor.

[Ignacio Valdes]

What fitting does one use to get the compressed air in?  I have a
plain compressed air dust blow gun with the rubber tip but I don't know if
that is long enough to reach through the top shroud. Is that sufficient or
is there a better way? Also I do not understand what " top of piston in
most likely  8-9 sq. in.”?" means?
