I have been soaking the bolts with Liquid Wrench for a couple days but they don't want to let loose. I've only been using a 1/4 drive socket to attempt to loosen them because I don't want to deal with broken bolts. How often do you end up with broken bolts trying to get the thermostat housing off? Or is dealing with the broken bolts just part of the process or with they take more torque then I am giving them credit for?
How much heat can you put to the housing without causing an issue (not that I have anything bigger than a propane torch).
I give it a 99% chance the bolts are original and a 50/50 chance thermostat is original
