Turbocharger Posted September 22, 2005 Share Posted September 22, 2005 'Ere Tony - I've got a parcel under my desk all the way from Australia, but I can't get the bolts undone. What's the best way- WD40? Burn myself undoing it while it's all hot? Get the impact gun out? I don't want to shear anything off really, I can see that'd be unhelpful.

BogMonster Posted September 22, 2005 Share Posted September 22, 2005 I would soak overnight in WD40 or penetrating oil and give the bolt heads a few very sharp taps with a small hammer, this can sometimes help to loosen seized bolts like that. A rattle gun is probably not a good idea as it will probably shear them off. I also have a box from Australia, the contents of which are currently connected to my indoor 12V power supply for the 2 VHF radios in the sitting room, hopefully being only 18 months old my EGR plate bolts will come out reasonably easily!
