We literally threw our induction heater in the garbage. We had it replaced 2 times. It took an eternity to use. Had a guy interested in purchasing it. Went to show him that it worked, it didnt.

We really really like Kimball Midwest penetrating oil. Their CB+ is the best but it is honestly a bit too dangerous. It will strip paint instantly and is pretty hard on cuts and eyes. Their regular CB is still dammmmmnnnn good. Our favorite way is to heat the stud and not the nut. It sounds crazy but it works like a dream. We remove 50+ crusty rusty studs and bolts daily. Heat the bolt or the stud until red and keep the flame away to keep it red for a bit without melting it. Let it cool completely down and 9/10 times we barely have to put any effort in to loosen it. If they are severely stuck we get it all red hot and shove parafin wax into the joint.

Theres a guy on YouTube called projectfarm, he tests all kinds of things. A while back he did some tests on penetrating oil and I was really surprised how well wd-40 did. I've been a pb blaster guy for a long time but wd beat it almost every time. AvE did an episode on penetrants and had similar results.

This is perfect timing. Just ordered the studs and hardware for our bxs. Have exhaust tick and found one stud is broke. Not exactly looking forward to that job.

Interesting video, always been a fan of kroil. Although if something is frozen solid, usually heat and a quick dab of bees wax does it for me.

Would've rather had the test done with Seafoam deep creep, not Royal Purple. I've never heard of anyone using that stuff.

I think he used deep creep in the 2nd video and iirc it worked really well.

They’re both gay so you don’t have to worry about any inbred Volvo children.

That ad is so full of ****... what’s bad is I’ve got people from all over contacting me, wanting to know what kinda truck it is. I don’t want in the middle of it.

I still haven’t gotten my last paycheck either.

It’s a 379 with a 6NZ. It’s basically the holy grail on the Internet. Be worth 1/2 that if it had like a 2WS lol
