He would boil brake fluid and pour it into the cylinders. 5 minutes or so would pass and he would hear the rings releasing. Do we want to do any mad scientist chemistry demonstration? 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The current ones hold air but one is a 9.50 the other is a 8.50. It needs a PTO clutch, pulley and hoop. Maybe some shine juice?? John might want to start a separate thread to keep track of this thing? 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
