So I have good compression in 2 cylinders at 1:18 each and the other two I have 95 do you think the seafoam thing might be an advantage to me
Go to Walmart and buy some Seafoam in the automotive section. Squirt a few ounces in each cylinder or more and let it sit for a couple of hours or so. Recheck compression. You may have to repeat a few times.
The rings are probably stuck form sitting so long.
When you get it running mix Seafoam with your fuel/oil mixture for a tank or two to clean the motor out good.
