Just a Whap or so once a day and let the penetrant move. One day instead of hearing a whack! you'll hear a whunk! Keep tabs under the engine and watch for penatrant getting through to the floor. You know you are making headway then. "PATIENCE" or a good check book. each can be substituted for the other. Good Luck!
