[QUOTE="bobberboy, post: 145903, member: 1417"] My dad was a farmer and like most farmers tried everything short of going to the shop to keep things going. He could fix anything with bailing wire and electrical tape. He swore by the use of brake fluid to get rusted or stuck bolts loose. He always had an oil can of it around and squirted a liberal amount on the offending nut/bolt. He would usually give another dose or two and 24 hours to do its thing. This or another solvent to help loosen the broken bolt and an easy-out might do the trick and is worth trying before you give it up or take it to the shop. WTL's advice [i]Any motor that runs or did run recently isn't a POS except by comparison[/i] is good. [/QUOTE]
