@dadsbee Has mentioned some great stuff that Mikey on here used for his exhaust bolts and worked like a drean some type of penetrant that’s a namebrand may be permit tax that also goes on cold and freezes and it worked like a charm. Hopefully one of them will try them in.

permit tax? ...... gotta love spell check

Gibbs lubricant oil, will get stuck bolts and nuts loose. And so much more

I use Kroil Oil. I'm happy with it. It seems to work better than PB Blaster, but I like PB Blaster.

I tried acetone/atf mix one time-no luck. I usually use the fire axe. The rubber hose can blow out of the crimped connection as warned earlier (face/eye protection). I have loosened many rusted on flare nut/line connections in my life, here in the rust capitol of America-Michigan.

One old fashioned secret is to hold the flare nut, and turn the hose off of it.

Here in the rust capitol, heat would still be required.

I like that idea, for the reason that it's much easier to target the fitting that needs to be loosened than heat up all the surrounding areas.
