[QUOTE="Pappy, post: 226185, member: 3278"] Use Mapp gas if you can get your hands on some. Usually available through any hardware store. Heat the aluminum until the paint goes away then start working the clamp assy. slowly in both directions. As the clamp tightens back down stop and reheat the aluminum casting around the clamp screw. When you can, grease up the threads and run the clamp screw back and forth until you are able to introduce grease into it. [/QUOTE]
