one of the smartest engineers I know sent me this. I thought I would bass it on. Personnally I have used can kroil and aeroKroil (not mentioned in this but it is an arisol version of cankroil) with phenominal success, but it is hard to come by and spendy. I may mix a homebrew batch and put it in a seal container...
Machinist's Workshop Magazine (March/April or May/June, 2007)
actually tested penetrants for break out torque on rusted nuts.
Significant results! They are below, as forwarded by an
ex-student and professional machinist, Bud Baker.
They arranged a subjective test of all the popular penetrants
with the control being the torque required to remove the nut
from a "scientifically rusted" environment.
*Penetrating oil .... Average load*
None ............
WD-40 ............
PB Blaster ............
Liquid Wrench ..... 127 pounds
Kano Kroil ............ 106 pounds
ATF-Acetone mix....53 pounds
The ATF-Acetone mix was a "home brew" mix of 50 - 50 automatic
transmission fluid and acetone. Note the "home brew" was better
than any commercial product in this one particular test. Our
local machinist group mixed up a batch, and we all now use it
with equally good results. Note also that "Liquid Wrench" is
about as good as "Kroil" for about 20% of the price
I bought it with the head off.I haven't un bolted the cylinder yet.But it don't turn over with thekick starter.I been spraying the piston with liquid wrench for the past week.I'm going to Walmart and look for thar Kroil oil.Harbour Frieght for a rubber mallet.

You took off the head. Does the cylinder come off or is it stuck?
