The Stovebolt Site Forums The Shop Area General Truck Talk Also,what do you use on rusted bolts?

Years ago I overheard a parts counter clerk tell a customer to slather the bolt head in Hellmans Mayonaise (he said no other brand would work)

After the guy left I asked him, "That dosen't really work, does it?" and he replied, "Nahh.. that guy's just an @sshole."

I don't know if it was related or not, but I saw that sales clerks picture in the paper a week or so later, after he was gunned down outside a bar.

For rusty bolts that are stuck, I use WD40, and when that don't work, I heat 'em up with a MAP gas torch.. it also helps to use a good ratchet and have a 6' length of pipe to put over the handle to increase your leverage!
