This should fix the issue.
I have done this many times with great success.
Few years ago i bought a 67 Mercury Cougar. It had sat for 33 years not running. Motor was stuck. I MEAN STUCK. Took me 2 months to get it really turning over. Took the carb off, dumped tranny fluid strait down the intake. Let it soak.
Finally got it running. Did exactly like i told you to do. NO issues.
Unless you think your valves may need adjusted. Then its a different issue.

I think its a varnish issue, I replaced the intake and had the exhaust manifold off I was able to see the valves through the exhaust ports abd a few were very varnished. Im gunna try the tranny fluid thing. Do I substitute quart for quart then?
