Default Removing a bolt

nothing will budge this thing.

Any suggestions?


I see BP Blaster suggested I am not familiar with that product. I am
familiar with Kroil/AeroKroil from kanolabs.com , which to me is FM*!
Try taking apart a diesel turbine mount Impossible without this stuff.
It is a superpenetrant, Spray on a few times a day, and tap with a
hammer, or try heating the block (heat lamp a few hours), and dry
iceing the bolt, guaranteed removel. Just be patient, and save the
grinder/dynamite/etc for last resort. Good luck, time works. Please
take reasonable fire precautions.

Kroil *is* great stuff, but Kanolabs doesn't seem overly interested in
retail sales. BP Blaster, on the other hand, is readily available at the
local auto-parts store.
