List, I have to pass this little trick on to you guys. I was telling my neighbor how much trouble I was having removing a stuborn head bolt on my TR4A motor. I had been soaking it with P-B Blaster for days with no improvement... He suggested that I use a torch to heat the bolt, then place a candle on the shank of the bolt right at the head and keep feeding more wax into the hole for about a minute. I tried it and the bolt came right out! Dave Connitt '67 TR4A http://home.fuse.net/davestr4a |
