Ok so I get my 3A and 9A off the truck this afternoon. 9A in basement to put on engine stand for tinkering. 3A I decide to pull the Audi Oil pan off to let it bleed out...( it was still leaking fluids from where he had recently pulled it)....
Broke 3 frecking oil pan bolts off! 8-( I hate old stuff. Hey wait a minute I'm old stuff. 8-)
Lifted them off the truck and moved them around myself BTW. I know my back is gonna pay for the manly man stuff. LOL
Anyway does anyone have a surefire or good method for getting those little boogers out of there? I was thinking blow torch to heat it up alittle then easyouts. (I hate them)
I sprayed them good with WD40, but I remember someone on here talking about the wonders of something else????
I figured I'd soak them in Kroil before I seriously wrestle with them again. I've got other stuff to do right now instead of messing around with these blocks.
cheers
