    using atf fluid to free sticking valves

    I heard that I can use atf fluid to free sticking valves and to basically clean out the inside of the engine. How do I go about doing this.

    ATF works..... don't run it in the motor for very long, and let the oil pan drip for more than an hour (making sure everything is out).
