Canadian tire sell 'liquid wrench' which isn't bad.

My wife recently got me some Krown KP 53 penetrating fluid from Home
Hardware and it seems to work really well.

As you have found out, WD40 only displaces water, it is a very poor
penetrant. Brake fluid is 'way' better as a penetrant if you are
desperate.

Harry,
I tried pressing it out while it was mounted with a mini vice.. 4.5mm socket
as the 'die' and a 10mm socket as a spacer on the head end... no luck. With
the part cut off, I can't do it in a press because of the U shape... it will
crush the part. I tried bridging the gap as well. This puppy is frozen
solid.
Time to call the dealer or cut one off at the wrecker.
