Passing along a shop tip.

Our Excursions aren't getting any younger, and some ar 10 years old. That means frozen bolts. I read about this a couple of months ago. For rusted stuff, try it.

ATF and acetone 50/50 mix for penatrant. It works well.

I wonder if anyone has used Fluid Film on super hard bolts. I use it to lube things, but havent had to use it as a penetrant....Yet.
