Removing a stuck pedal spindle from crank - I HAVE SINNED RADSTERS

<< < (2/5) > >>

BENDYCAT ELEVENTEEN:
pour coke~a~cola over it - the coke will eat into the rust or dirt that has built up to seal it - wd40 will only sit on top and not penetrate into where it need to go

see if you can get it to sit in some coke which will be better  ;)

BMX1973:
Thanks for replys.  :)
Given the above ideas a go with still no joy.  >:(
When I look the pedal it looks like its on so tight its crushed into the crank, also it does not appear to be on quite staight.  :tickedoff:
Giving the coke idea a go now.  :-\
Think if this doesn't work I will have to grind the crank off.  :shocked:
Will keep you all informed on progress.

Peter J:
I've had a problem with a stuck/rusted crank arm

Tried the coke...I think that could have loosened it  ???

Next I tried the MAP Gas torch...................  :daumenhoch:

animal:
Try GT40 spray its the nuts 4 penetrating and loosening rust  ::) Pardon my french  :D

HUTCHMAN:
perhaps try Wurth "rostoff ice" and freeze the spindle.
