I'm with Pogo. My Homelite C72 was locked up tight, two weeks with ATF/Acetone soaking in the cylinder and it freed up. But, the rings were stuck in the grooves bad, almost no compression. Filled the cylinder again, pushed it to the back of the bench and forgot about it for at least a month. The rings freed up and I had compression enough that it fired on a prime with 3-4 pulls.
