How To Free Up A Seized Bolt or Nut
Вставка
- Опубліковано 27 чер 2019
- Nut or bolt stuck or seized? This is the ultimate way to loosen a rusted bolt or nut. You need this penetrating oil to solve your problem. This is the easiest method to remove a stubborn or frozen nut or bolt.
There is nothing more frustrating when you have a tight bolt that you just can’t turn. Over time nuts and bolts become rusted or corroded to the point where you just can’t undo the bolt. It just won’t come off. Allow this penetrating oil time to seep into the threads then give it a try and turn and unstick the bolt.
I’ve checked out the Top 10 or more commercial brands out there like Kano Kroil, Blaster 16-PB, WD-40, Gibbs Brand Lubricant, 3-in-one Multi-purpose oil, Kano Aerokroil L106, Royal Purple 05000 Maxfilm Synthetic Penetrating Oil, Loctite 504054, Castle Thrust C2005, Kano Sili and CRC Knock’er Loose, these work great but I think the concoction in my video works better. Try it for yourself. Quickly and easily loosen a rusted nut or bolt.

So sorry to hear about the loss of your brother Steve, keep the faith bro,
I've got news for you pal, those threads you showed aren't that corroded, I could have taken that off with some heat from a propane torch.
I woulda loved your brother I'm sure. I do a lot of after dinner work for neighbors and nearby's. Money is tight for all of us. Wish I had your knowledge and skills. but as long as I got you around, I'm a rock star. And I push them all to learn from you. In my area of NC, your weed Wacker video should be viral, whatever the fk that means. Bless you, sir! Bless you, man!
I didn't realize watching a video like this would make me cry. I know it's been 4 years but my condolences.
RIP MIKEY
Condolences Steve to you and your family. Thank you, Mike, for this tip.
Right on my friend...
Yes,a great loss to you and your family, and I’m sure left you and audience a great wealth of experience. I’m sure he meant for you to carry on. May you find peace brother.
What do you do when you mess up and drink the acetone? Asking for a friend.
A plasma cutter works great too😁
@@ekujj13Comes out the acehole, no problem.
One last ditch item that can help the acetont/atf concoction when it still doesn't turn is: instead of applying pressure loosening the nut/bolt/screw is to tighten it a very small amount 1st. (1/16 of a turn or less) This can break the base metal corrosion loose and allow the atf mix to penetrate more deeply.
May God bless & give rest to the soul of Mike!
Yeap doing that always worked for me.
Pops taught me that as a kid. Totally works. Small folks gotta use tricks to get by. Use your head not your body
thanks michaelamick, but most of us old guys know that already, anything moves easier going in the same direction it stuck in. good to hear someone today comment about that.
Can also grab a torch and heat the bolt/nut up, then let it cool. The heating and cooling will cause a slight separation. The penetrating fluid will have an easier time soaking in too.
don’t forget the beer step,it’s the most esssential,😂.
Steve, I have been trying to get the bolts off my ride on mower spindles for almost two weeks. I tried penetrating fluid, cheater bars, hammers, lots of swearing. Your brother Mikes concoction worked after I let it sit on for the duration of two cold snacks (beers). Thanks for all you do mate.
Right on
I've been carrying this video in the back part of my brain since you published it. Thanks to your brother Mikey. Today mixed 1 tablespoon of each in a cleaned out glass spice jar, and got the rusted bolts off a found garden trailer. For the win.
So Sorry for your loss Steve. This is an Awesome Tip he Shared with you to Share. Thumbs Up.
Thank You...
I got misty eyed watching this video. It is obvious how much your brother meant to you. Also I have used ATF and acetone for YEARS and it works great!
Right on Buddy...
I've tried most every penetrating fluid known to man over the last 34 years as a machinist. What I have noticed is that when the nut eventually breaks free there is never any sign of the penetrating fluid on the threads where the nut was. What has most always worked is either using the impact forces of an impact gun tightening-loosening in tiny increments, or heat on the nut (not the bolt). Sometimes a combination. But you always run the risk of shearing off the fastener. So I appreciate your tip and I will certaily give it a try. Cheers.
Right on
Always wondered if it really works..glad you answered that one.
Left off.
Sure sorry for your loss. I lost my brother last year and it’s heartbreaking Thank you as always for the great tips and tutorials. I’ve repaired my own mowers and weed whackers as well as friends and families with your help. Now I will have a good way to break free rusted bolts thanks to you and your brother.
Steve, I'm recently a new small engine tech. Attended Wisconsin Indanhead Technical College. Got their certificate in Power Sports Technology. I placed First in SkillsUsa power equipment technology in Wisconsin and 8th in the nation at Nationals in 2017.
That being said, I don't profess to know anything beyond too much theory.
I did this at age 56 beating out 2 year vo-tech students.
My problem is; I'm still learning. No where near being an expert
I lack mentorship.
This is where your videos come in
I've learned as much watching your videos as I have in school.
Keep up the good work, and anyone who incorporates beer in their tutalege is alright by me
Keep up the good work and I hope to get me a hoodie from you soon!
Right on Dan! That means a lot to me. Thank You...
Steve, My condolences on the loss of your brother. In honour of your sharing of Mike’s ‘concoction’ I’m heading to the liquor store for some of the same Heineken. Thanks Steve (and Mike too!)
Right on Buddy...Thank You...
Steve's Small Engine Saloon, Just to let you know, I went out to Port Renfrew yesterday to visit some friends, took the Heineken’s to share, and also shared Mikes ‘recipe’... your mom was right, Sharing is Caring and thank YOU for continuing to share all of your knowledge with us!
I didn't think it would work. It's like a miracle. The nut was so stuck I thought I would shear the bolt. Many thanks.
Glad to help
I know this video is 4yrs old but I’m sorry for your loss. I love your vids. I have learned a lot from you. Thank you.
Right on
My deepest sympathy for the loss of your brother. Thank you for sharing his brilliance.
Thank You...and You're Welcome...
@@StevesSmallEngineSaloon love your videos keep it up Steve sorry to hear about your brother I know you will carry him in your heart RIP Mickey
So sorry for your loss Steve. Thoughts and prayers to you and your family. Great video again
Thank You...
Sorry for the loss of your brother. Thank you Steve for sharing this recipe, I play with small engines mainly on pressure washers maintaining them for my cleaning business. Thanks for all your tips and advice, you've saved me not only time but money as well!
Thank You...and You're Welcome...
Sorry to hear about your brother Steve. You did a great job on making this video which I could tell was difficult for you. The glimpse of the emotion brought back memories of when I lost my dad. It is just been over two years and I miss him terribly.
That being said, I will try this today in my shop. I thank you for posting this. Up until now my go to has been heating it with a propane torch or heat gun just enough to melt a small puddle of candlewax on the stuck nut or bolt, This works extremely well, but adding he can sometimes be a problem.
R.I.P. Mike. Condolences to your family Steve!
Thank You...
Sorry about the loss of your Brother Steve. My Condolence to you and your family.
Thanks for the great tip!
Take Care
Thank You...and You're Welcome...
Very sorry for your loss. Praying for you and all involved. I just found your channel a few days ago and love it. One of the best channels out there. I used to have to watch ten videos to get all the info you have in just one of your videos. Very well done. God bless you, your family and your brother.
Thank You...
Steve I just found your channel a couple days ago and have been binge watching. I am so sorry about your loss. Condolences to you and your family, I know Mike is so proud of you and smiled when he saw this video. R.I.P. Mike.
Right on Jimmy! Thank You...
Quite a tribute to your brother. I've never - never - used anything that works. I will try Mike's remedy in his honor.
Thank You...
Rusted out cast iron fry pan is going to get some of this "treatment". Nice tribute Steve. Also belated condolences. I really sensed the genuine heartfelt sincerity in your voice. A nice closure to a brother.
I have heard of this acetone/atf mix many times. I've not used it yet, my go to is Aerokroil, or Kroil. It claims to get into clearances up to one millionth of an inch. It's never failed to work, it's expensive, but worth it.
Thanks for this little gem, Steve. Glad your Mom always taught you and your brother to share. So sorry for your loss. I know Mike is pleased with your honoring his memory in this way. God bless you guys. Peace.
You're Welcome...and Thank You...
So sorry to hear about your loss, Steve. Thank you for this tip, I know it will come in handy! Now, if I could just get ONE of my 4 lawnmowers to run.....lol
I had fast forward past the talk about your brother passing, and not a second later restarted the video thinking to myself how much you have helped me with the videos you make, the least I can do is hear you out and send my condolences, really man thank you for helping a young man learn. I know your bother is proud of you and bless him may he rest easy.. your the best man, thanks
Thank you my friend!
Hey Steeve! Always a pleasure learning from the knowledge you acquired over the years. My DIY skills have greatly improved thanks to you. Take care.
Cool, thanks
Sorry to hear of your loss Steve. Many thanks for more great tips Champ. Cheers and beers from Australia!
Thank You...and You're Welcome...
So sorry for your loss Steve. RIP Mike. Thank you for a great video. I'm going to use it at work.
Thank You...and You're Welcome...
So sorry for your loss Steve. What a great way to share your memories of Mike. I'll be sure to try this concoction next time I have a stuck bolt.
Right on ...
I am sorry for your loss, Steve.
Thank you very much for sharing your brother's tip with us.
Thank You...and You're Welcome...
Steve, since refinding your channel a few days ago, I have watched a bunch of them and I can not even begin to tell you how much confidence you instilled in me to tackle some of the small engine issues I am faced with today. My sincere wishes on your family, losing someone is really not losing them but rather, just a spearation of space and time for a while. But, THANK YOU for sharing your brother's recipe for this pentetrating solution. The timing for me seems to be divine in nature as, soon as I finish watching a couple more of your how to vids here, I have a relatively new weed trimmer, honda tiller (aged) and a riding mower with a solenoid problem calling my name attention. Today, I can pick up my tools and head to them with far more confidence than I had just a week ago. I no longer look with dread in the direction of these pieces of equipment to make the repairs/tune ups. Hats off to you and Mike for helping us all learn, grow and save...
WOW! Thank you so much Tom....
I refer this video to someone every month. And it breaks my heart every time I watch it. Your loss is so new and raw.
Thank you buddy, I appreciate that....
My deepest condolences to you and your family. Even though I am just seeing this now, about a year later, Mike's tip will live on and so will his memory through you. I can tell it was difficult at the beginning of your video and you came through it like a true professional. I am truly impressed at your stamina and courageous effort to carry on for your fans and also to help you through a difficult time. God Bless Steve.
Thanks Gary! That intro took me 14 takes.....
Condolences, I'm so sorry to hear about your loss my heart goes out to you and your family. Keep up the great videos when your feeling up to it.
Thank You...
Cheers to Mike my brother I really can feel you Steve, you have some balls to share this on his memory!!!! Life goes on keep on doing what you’re doing bro!!!
Right on Dan....
Sorry for your loss Steve. I know the feeling. I lost my little brother when he was 23 years old. He was already an excellent automotive mechanic as he was rebuilding VW’s when he was 12 years old. I’m a carpenter by trade but watching your videos has made me a decent small engine guy. Thank you for everything. Wish you and I and our brothers could sit around and BS I’m sure we would all enjoy it. Once again.
, sorry for your loss and thanks again !!
Thank You...
Great tip Steve! big thanks to Mike who is now going to be well thought of everytime one of us is saved from the frustration of rusted on nuts.👍🇨🇦🍻
Right on
Sorry to hear about the loss of your brother, our condolences and prayers to your family. Thanks for sharing!
Thank You...and You're Welcome...
What a great tip. Even if this is a few years since your brother passed, please accept my sincerest condolences. You are the best Steve and I know your brother was proud of you.
Thank You...
Sorry for the loss of your brother. My gratitude to you and Mike for sharing this tip. Can’t wait to get some acetone to try this on a pulley rusted onto an old boat alternator.
Good luck!
So sorry for your loss brother. Hoping his life down here was happy and may he rest in peace.
What I use that works pretty well is about one-third each of diesel,transmission fluid, and acetone. Thanks for all the good things you've shown us Steve.
Cheers Brother😊
Thank You...and You're Welcome...
Through you putting this video out, Mike lives on. Thank you and God bless. Mom did a good job.
Thank you my friend! What a nice comment...
Cheers Mike and Steve. I'm sorry to hear of your loss. HUZZAH
Thank You...
Thank you Steve. That's a great tribute to your brother. It will always be here where mechanics and do-it-yourselfers gather.
You're Welcome...and Thank You...
Your brother's legacy will live on in this video. Thanks for sharing this small part of your brother's life with us. Blessings!
Thank You...
God bless you and your family, keep up your great work Steve and make Mike proud. Thank you for your videos. I love them all!
Thank You...and You're Welcome...
My sincerest condolences to you and your family Steve. ❤️
Such an easy formula. Most of us have these two components laying around. No reason to not give it a shot. Thanks Mike & Steve!
Thank You...and You're Welcome...
I am restoring a vintage moped and had a bolt screwed into an alloy frame that had to come out and so made up your fabulous mixture. Wow it works.
Right on
Steve, I tried Aero Kroil, heat, freeze spray, the works... muffler U-bolts wouldn't budge. So I watched your video, made a couple of tablespoons of your brother's brew, and voila! Off they came! Great way to honor your brother's memory! Thank you!
Thank You...and You're Welcome...
I've been using this for the last month or so while working on a car that sat for 3 years in New England. I've yet to break a bolt of yet. Thank you for the great tip/formulation.
You're Welcome...
Prayers for you and your family. Thanks for the tip. Ill have to try it next time i have a stuck bolt
Thank You...and You're Welcome...
So sorry for your loss. Because of you, I was able to get my Ryobi leaf blower not only properly tuned but running like new. You did a video specifically on that similar model and I thank you for that. I was just about to give up but you saved me some $$ and I tackled it. Between adjusting & tuning it, and proper non-ethanol fuel, it runs like new. I didn’t have go out and buy a new one. The unit is over 10 yrs old!
Again, my condolences to you and your family.
-Roy
Right on Roy! Thank You...
Morning Steve. Thoughts and prayers for you and your family on your brothers passing. Know that he’s in a much better place. I lift my glass up to you and your brother! Awesome videos, love watching them then heading to the garage to tinker. God bless ya Steve!
I appreciate that
My Dad died, march this year. He was 85, but shit it is hard to process. Steve, thank you for sharing your loss and the tip your brother gave you. Remember guys, we need to talk!
My heart goes out to you and your family! He is in a great place!
Thank You...
Sorry for your loss Steve. I tried this mixture and I'm amazed at how well it works! Thx so much!
You're Welcome...
That was a very touching video tribute in honor of your brother Mike. I got a little choked up thanks for sharing a special memory of him with everyone. I know he was with you when you did this. God bless
Thank You...
Cheers Steve..top tip. Condolences to your family.. mikes legend lives on.. 🔧🔧🔩🔩
Right on Buddy..
Very sorry to hear about your brother Steve. Many thanks for the great tip.
Thank You...and You're Welcome...
I just tried this on a rusted castle nut for an outer tie rod that I've been struggling with for 2 weeks and was AMAZED at how well it worked! Nothing else would make it budge: I heated it well over 650 °F, added an extension to a breaker bar and put over 500lb-ft of torque, soaked it in PB Blaster, nothing. 50/50 ATF with Acetone, poured it on a few times to let it soak, waited a few minutes, and the nut turned as if nothing happened😮😮 HUGE thanks to you, Steve! 💪🏻💪🏻
Right on buddy!
Thank you for the tip, it looks good. I use Penetrene, on difficult Nuts, but you may need to let is seep-in for a few hours. 20 years back I was repairing a Ford Steering Box. But, before I could dismantle it I had the break the seal of 1 ¼ Inch nut holding the arm. With a socket and a one yard lever I could not break the seal. I put Penetrene on it and went home. Next morning I was able to remove the nut with a 10 Inch Spanner. Not as quick as your suggestion, but it’s an off the shelf product.
Steve, my best to you and your family, sorry for your loss.
Know this, Mike lives on in my shop, he starts work tomorrow.
Thank you, my friend.
BTW, the can will be marked Mikes mix.
Thats freakin awesome Tom! Thank You...
God bless Mike, Steve and your family.
You are 100% correct. I've been using this for a few years now and I haven't found any nut/bolt this hasn't freed. Most guys have a half liter of ATF sitting around and Acetone isn't that expensive.
Joe Atwork ...Or just steal the wife’s nail polish remover 😈 same stuff.
@@mercoid I don't know. That's a crime that's not worth the time.
Thank You...
Cool. I've been a bike mechanic for 40 years and we called that 50/50 mix the secret sauce. We would soak rusty freehubs (from salt water damaged bicycles) in the mix for days to free them up. It's the real deal.
That's awesome! It's great to hear from someone with so much experience in the field. Thanks for sharing your knowledge!
Cheers to your brother, Steve. Had a best friend pass just a few weeks ago. Hurts. Stay strong and thanks for these great vids. Your brother must have been proud of ya!
You're Welcome...and Thank You...
My thoughts are with you Steve. A hard thing to go through. I love your channel and all your helpful money saving tips. God bless.
Thank You...
I just came across this video, my deepest condolences regarding your brother. I have lost one also, and I share your pain. This mix seems to be what I've needed. I have a '63 Beetle and well... rusted nuts come with the territory. This will be a game changer.
Thank You...
The most amazing bolt/screw/nut etc. UNseizing method EVER!!!
I had a metal toilet handle that broke and the base was frozen to the metal nut. I was going to have to replace my ceramic toilet water holder. Tried this method which is a 1:1 ratio (aka 50:50 mix). Place in a small shot glass (Thank's to Steve's Small Engine Saloon--HaHa) Drop a few drops onto the frozen bolt and nut and watched it "soak in" as Steve recommended. 2 minutes later I was able to unscrew the frozen bolt. Genius!!
Right on Jimmy! Thank You...
EXCELLENT TIP CHEERS - RIP Mikey. As a guy below says once the nut releases DONT try to run it straight off it WILL seize again. Undo - then tighten a little - undo - tighten - undo- tighten etc THEN she will come off! I have use this with bolts up to 2 inches!
Thank You...
Thanks for the tips. Sorry for your loss of your brother. God bless
You're Welcome...and Thank You...
Thanks Steve I'll give it a try 👍and Steve I'm sorry for your loss 🙏
You're Welcome...and Thank You...
Very sorry for your loss. Thanks for another great video.
I am very sorry for your brother Mike’s loss. It was obvious at the start of your video, by your facial expression, just how much he meant to you.
Thanks to Mike for this great tip.
Best to you and your family.
Michael O.
Alabama, USA
Thank You...
Wow so sorry Steve, thank you Mike for the great tip Rest In Peace
Right on Larry...
I don't know what to say Steve, but you surely got to my tender side. You rock and your videos are exactly what you advertise.
May you be comforted in your loss.
Thank You...
Mike lives in the knowledge he shared. Thank you Steve for a beautiful tribute to your brother.
You're Welcome...
My heartfelt condolences to you and your family, Steve. Thank you so much for you and your wife's work in these videos. Your perserverence and dedication, even in a time like this, is appreciated and commended. I've heard of this trick before and have yet to try it, but I will soon!
Right on ..
Hi Steve, I’m so sorry about your brother, my heartfelt condolences go out to you, your family and Mikey’s. Thank you for sharing his tip. I happen to have those ingredients in my garage and will try it on a seized, rusty glow plug nut on my old diesel. Thanks again so much
Thank You...and You're Welcome...
That's my battle now too. Got 7 out and one broke inside and now I am trying to get that out. Tried extractors, heat, fluid, etc and nothing is budging it yet.
Diesel mechanic in northern Jersey. Working on salt trucks and heavy equipment I see a lot of rusted parts. The best stuff I have found is the Mopar rust penetrant. It seems to soften the rust and really does an amazing job. Amazon has it for a good price. Give it a shot!
Been watching your videos for a few years Steve, this one just popped up in my feed. Thanks for the tip, and hope time has helped ease the loss of your brother.
I recently purchased a gallon of acetone from fiberglass store and it comes in a plastic jug.Sometimes need to loosen rusty fasteners and I use heat when possible. Thanks for your tip on this one.
You're Welcome...
Sorry to hear of your loss brother. Condolences to you and your family. Thanks for the share, I'll be trying this out for sure!
Another great useful video tip Steve! My condolences to you, and your family.
Thank You...
Sorry for your loss, thanks for your videos !
Thank You...and You're Welcome...
Sorry for your loss, Steve. You’ve got a great YT channel here. Your tips always work!
Thank You...
Condolences to you and your family. Thanks for sharing.
Thank You...and You're Welcome...
Thank you for everything. You helped me get a new job and being a single father, now able to feed my Daughter and we are happy. All thanks to you Steve. I'm sorry to hear about your families loss. We down here in Roeland Park, Kansas will be thinking of you guys.
You're Welcome...and Thank You...
Sorry for your loss. God bless
Hi Steve,I’m watching this video 3 years later for the first time.I am really sorry for your loss my friend..my brother passed a few years back. So I fell ya brother..keep up the great work..I thank you and Mikey for this great Solution Recommendation. I will try this soon as I get the opportunity. Thanks again man..peace!!.
Thank You...and You're Welcome...
Thank you so much for doing this, even in your time of grievance.. your amazing! I know this was created 3yrs ago but I still felt sharing my thankfulness and condolences to you was important, because you are 😉
RIP MIKEY! 🌟
You're Welcome...and Thank You...
Thanks for sharing that Steve-O. You're a real down to earth guy and you have a lot of folks out here that enjoy your sense of humor and your no nonsense approach to getting things fixed and running again. Sorry to hear about your brother man. May his memory be for a blessing to all who knew and loved him. Carry on Steve, we're with ya bro♥! I can hear the pain in your voice at losing brother Mike, stay strong Steve. Do you think this combo would work at unseizing a piston in a 2 stroke engine?
Sorry for your loss. Awesome tip from him and nice dedication.
Thank You...
Steve, you have such a pleasant disposition and you are so down to earth. You are a very good teacher! Your mom and your brother Mike can be proud of you. My condolences Steve. Thank you for sharing 👍🏻
Thank You...and You're Welcome...
Sorry for your loss. Thanks for the video. I got just the right bolts to try Mike’s trick. Can you do a video comparing those cheap Chinese carburetor vs name brand?
Ive been a fan of using diesel fuel to penetrate into stubborn stuff. But I do like the look of this mix
Right on
Rip mike
i found an old jorgenson 112x clamp with a frozen screw...tried heat and many other thing s for close to a year...then tried the atf/acetone trick..24 hours later the screw was loosened...outstanding trick...thank you!!!!
Found this linked video after viewing yours about lawn mower with no compression. Steve, so sorry for your loss. Its been years since I lost my brother, but we'll see them again! Thanks for a great tip. RIP Mike. Rob
Thank You...
Been using acetone and atf since I was a kid. My gramps taught me to use it when I started working on bikes and small engines. Another option that also works in some instances is to heat the part and rub it with wax and let it penetrate. But acetone and atf is about the best and cheapest penetrating fluid out there.
Right on
Great video Steve, I lost a sibling recently too and know how hard it is. Todd from Project Farm did a few videos on penetrating fluids/lubricants but I don't think he tried any mixes or homemade ones as far as I can remember. Mikeys mix would definitely be worth a try out if he does any more.
Hey, Project Farm tested this solution and it won!
We have used Lime-Away on rusted and corroded nuts, bolts and auto parts with very good results. Thanks for this tip. I'll surely try it. May God fill your hearts with love and memories until you meet again.
Thank You...
Sorry for your loss sir. A great tribute, on your brother's behalf. I've been hearing a lot about this concoction, and will have to give it a try. Thank you!
Thank You...and You're Welcome...
