Is there anything short of rebuilding that can be used to free stuck
rotor seals on a RX-7 engine after it has set?

You can try soaking the inside in auto tx fluid for a few days.

If you can get the exhaust manifold off you can get to the seals with
your fingers and see if they are free. Also squirt some WD 40 in there.

Paul and others,

Try Kroil by thr Kano corporation.  Their product creeps down to a
millionth of an inch.
Compared to it's competition it's amazing. Also comes as an aerosol
known as aerokroil:)
