jeremi3210 735 #2 Posted March 9, 2014 Yep lots of pb blaster pentrating oil. I grabed mine with a vice grips and slowly worked it loose. Just dont force things take it slow maybe let it soak for a week before you try it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
can whlvr 993 #3 Posted March 10, 2014 I had to make a special blade that fit the slot and then I could put a pair of vice grips on the metal blade Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

boovuc 1,090 #5 Posted March 12, 2014 I had a C-120 that had a locked up tow valve. I used cotton balls soaked in PB blaster and had them on the valve using a little metal bar leaning against the tractor to hold it in place. It took the better part of a week but it did help keep the blaster on the threads and it did let go. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
