Ok I bought a blown TII engine

I opened it up

1 housing was damaged



the other was good

and the rotors have no damage

except all the seals have collapsed i.e there all the way in on the grooves



I cleaned the rotors(big time "dry" crode all over)

got 1 apex seal loose

and used that with a small hammer

to push the others off

had to use a flat screwdriver to push the corner seals to the side

and then use the apex seal and hammer to get them off



Now the side seals!

How the hell do I those off?



do I need a jewlers flat screw driver of something

or should I soke them in engine cleaning ACID?

did it have water in it? sometimes you can push side seals to the side

soak them overnight in Varsol or simple green. Either one will loosen the carbon.
