Am I worried over nothing? 1. The rust has compromised the strength more than the heat will. Go for it. Does not need to be glowing cherry red . Stop When you see it start to change color. A couple of heat cycles will help. 2. The crayon/wax trick works. 3. Make your own very effective penetrating oil with tranny fluid and acetone. Last edited by GomangoCuda; 04/15/20 06:00 PM. In theory, there is no difference between theory and practice. In practice, there is.
