Dealing with screws, bolts etc
I am trying to perform several tasks that all seem to end up the same --
stymied by a rusted, stripped, immobile screw, bolt, or connector. (My car is a 99, driven eight winters on salt-laden streets.) The latest is the retaining screw that holds the air tube on the throttle body which won't budge no matter what I've tried. If I could get it off, I'd like to remove and clean the throttle body but I have no idea what obstacles that will present. I'm also trying to get to the IACV which is way behind the throttle. The one screw I can see looks rusty to me, and I'm put off by attacking the ones I can't see. I also need to remove the distributor and expect to find similar obstacles in that job. Any advice, tricks, tips etc. for dealing with these energy-sapping obstacles would be appreciated. Thanks. |
