Tommie: Some of the favorites are diesel, brake fluid, transmission fluid, PB Blaster, and Coca-Cola. Some other ones that I've heard but not tried are Kroil (the Kanolabs link below), ammonia, candle wax and vinegar. Patience is the biggest key--it may take several days for the fluid to soak in to where the problem is. I use heat a lot, but you've got to be careful not to over-heat the part, resulting in melting, cracking, or taking the temper out. Often a good heating followed by a cold-water quench will pop a stubborn part free, but I've seen this crack parts as well--best to be careful if it's an expensive part to replace!
