Getting it running is a totally different thing. I will say that those two emissions solenoids that I had were rusted solid inside and were shorted out. After I soaked them in the stuff for a few days, they freed up and worked like new. That was amazing. I would agree that trying to get a V8 running without disassembling it is a futile concept since all the gaskets will be gone. The major mechanical assemblies would have to be dissassembled and the parts soaked again and then reassembled.

I think heir goal is to stabilize/preserve the condition of the car, not to make it a complete running and driving car again.
