My solution was: a lot of heat Used my propane torch and to protect brake lines, I covered them with my welders gloves, because I couldn’t find any plumbers mats. Each bolt took around 5-10 minutes of constant heating and then serious impact gun action, but I got there :)
I didn’t see the first post but- Ayyy, let’s go!
I’m happy you got it! stuck fasteners are a removed
Went it well without any damage to the rest of the car?
Yeah, constantly checked if nothing was overheating. And the impact did very well too. I am surprised how hot it can get. The impact bit sometimes got too hot to the touch, so I had to stop so it could cool down
You know, the “D” key on my keyboard has been sticking recently.
Just how much propane did you need?
I used this torch and because I was on low flame, I guess it didn’t need that much propane. Still on the same tank
Been there, done that. Swapped my motor out on my Mazda6 and the A/C compressor was WELDED on to the old engine block from rust. Sucker added at least four hours to the swap. Getting it out was liberating
