Default Re: Best lubrication - seized manifold bolts

Found something on the H.A.M.B. Is this what you were looking for Sam?

"I was reading a copy of Machinists Workshop magazine and they did a comparison test of several products used to loosen stubborn, rusted lock fasteners. They arranged a test of all the popular penetrants with the control being the torque required to remove the nut from a bolt in a rusted environment. This is what they found.

Penetrating oil used Torque to remove nut
None 516 pounds
WD-40 238 pounds
PB Blaster 214 pounds
Liquid Wrench 127 pounds
Kano Kroil 106 Pounds
ATF-Acetone Mix 53 Pounds

The ATF-Acetone mix as you know is a home brew mixed 50-50."
