sheerider11 Posted December 23, 2015 Report Share Posted December 23, 2015 Go buy an extractor and get it out. Dump some brake fluid on it now so it soaks in and will hopefully help free it up. DO NOT HEAT IT 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G920A using Tapatalk brake fluid will get through better then wd or pb. That's why I say put it on now so it has time to soak in and hopefully help it break loose Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Time Machine Posted December 23, 2015 Report Share Posted December 23, 2015 (edited) I work on a lot of old stuff. I've found this works well. It has worked for me when nothing else did. Since it works by freezing I'm careful using it on cast parts. http://www.amazon.com/CRC-05002-Freeze-Off-Super-Penetrant/dp/B000TFTH00 Edited December 23, 2015 by Time Machine Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sleeper06 Posted February 23, 2016 Report Share Posted February 23, 2016 Soak it, heat it , back it out, if all else fails drill it very carefully in steps. There's also a place in Merrick Colvin auto that will remove for like $10 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
