Seal old rings
I have one bad cylinder that is 125# as compared all the others running 145-155#. I pumped air into the cylinder and its definately coming from the crankcase. I'd like to try sealing them with a product that others have tried with good outcome.
I have a can of bonami( powdered polishing compound) that seems like others have used in the past. If I remember right you disolved a table spoon of the powder in a half cup of water and trickled it into the carb and let the car run till the smoke disappeared. Then changed the oil after. I thought I would also try one of the additives that profess to re-seal rings in old motors. I hate to have to spend a thousand on a motor that barely gets driven a thousand miles a year. I'm open to suggestions. BTW. This is not one of my pontiacs.
