Thanks, hadn't thought of doing it from underneath. Had this car 25 years, been in barn for 12 years without starting it!
Will try that tomorrow.
Thanks again

Got a sweet ride there. Pull plugs add some trans fluid or Marvel Mystery oil. Then turn over will free up rings.
Good luck let me know if need any help
