StarletRick Posted March 31, 2008 Share Posted March 31, 2008 you should have used the spanner and the wd40 you big girl Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Bourkey Posted March 31, 2008 Share Posted March 31, 2008 When loosening a tight nut, soat it in WD40 as Rick said, but give a good smack with a spanner before trying to remove it. The threads wiil have corroded together a little over time and smacking it will break the bond the nut has with the thread.Then give it a go and if you stil cant do it get a garage to do it and then join a gym. ;) Bourkey Quote Link to post Share on other sites
