dennisvr Posted October 24, 2018 Report Share Posted October 24, 2018 Back in the day when I had a truck tire business. This was way back when they were all split rims. Well sometimes rust would build up on the rim and the inner liner would not release the tire. So I would get a Coke and pour half of it on the rim and set back and drink the other half. By the time I finished it, a couple hits with the hammer and off she would come. Really don't miss those days...…………………..

Lance A Lott Posted October 25, 2018 Report Share Posted October 25, 2018 If you have a rusty pice of steel drop it in a bucket of water for a day or two. It even works on bolt with a rusty nut if you can submerge it. I saved a gear wrench by doing that. After soaking and wiping warm the piece up to dry and then oil. I know that has nothing to do with penitration oil but it does work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ray,IN Posted October 25, 2018 Report Share Posted October 25, 2018 Guess I'm old fashioned, I still use Liquid Wrench on rusted or stuck parts that should move but don't. I have a shelf full of other products too though. 2000 Winnebago Ultimate Freedom USQ40JD, ISC 8.3 Cummins 350, Spartan MM Chassis. USA IN 1SG retired;Good Sam Life member,FMCA ."
