Really?…. That is the first time I have heard about itThe ATF-Acetone mix comes out on top across numerous tests through the years. You just have to be careful to keep it off any plastic parts in the near vicinity.
I’m loving @Pirate Lady ’s method! I always used Liquid Wrench, but I’m gonna try the ATF-ACE mix…… I worked in mechanical maintenance at a PA power company, hydro-electric (dam across Susquehanna River, with a steam-powered plant along the riverside. Whenever we ran into that kind of a problem, which was almost daily as the plants were old, we always looked at each other and said ‘You get the propane and liquid wrench, I’ll get a bigger dam HAMMER’.PB blaster first, Liquid Wrench, together. Wait a while, heat til red hot with propane torch. Add socket at end of breaker bar with a 3 foot galvanized pipe on end.
Something is coming loose.
Guaranteed!

You….@hottoddie….are a very wise man, indeed!!Gotta be a little careful using the ATF/ACE mix as it's very flammable. Use with adequate ventilation and away from flames and sparks.
I wish I saw this post earlier - I can attest to that note. I just removed the crossover pipe on an 8.1 motor and found the thermostat bolt and the rubber water pump seal bolt frozen. I heated both but they would not budge. The welder at my shop welded nuts onto what was remaining and while it seemed to move slightly, I soaked with pb blaster overnight but both bolts still broke. Next time I’ll try the concoctions listed above.Not everything likes to be heated with a torch.
They have a cool old barn wood look to their label.Any of you guys hear of “torch-it” I was introduced to it a couple years ago, pretty good stuff
