Great, when I am constipated and out of Pepto or those pills that soften ya up, I can drink a bottle of Worcestershire sauce.

I've been heating a set of 350 pistons and dunking them in ATF for months, I guess I need to break down and buy some acetone.

Are we talking about in the motor or out or either?  Mine are out, someone said beat it with a stick of hardwood.

Or a stick of dynamite.  Make sure it's the pistons that are stuck, and not the crankshaft.
