I used it to soak the stuck throttle and choke shafts on some auction Holley 59s. After a couple weeks, I shot them again and administered a couple of persuasionary smacks with a small hammer, and moved they did!
Yup, Kroil rocks. Save bee's wax, it's the best penitrating lube I've ever used. I've broken loose many a stuck fitting and nut with Kroil.
Using it right now on my 38Ford pickup. Getting the windsheils movable and the p***enger door to open. Some bozo cut the hinges on the drivers door. By next winter when I start that project it should be all ready to go.
Great stuff, if you have a hard time finding it to buy try a gunshow, I have found it there for years; I don't know why the stuff isn't available in every store that has a hardware dept!
Order the gallon size-$40+/- shipped, and put it in a two-bit Wally World spritzer. Goes right where you want it to with no waste. Check around your parts houses, supposedly some do stock it. I had checked at the NAPA here; the counter boy comes over and asks what I'm looking for. I say Kroil; he picks up some Seafoam gas stabilizer and says "This?" I only hope his meds kick in some day...
best **** i've used,threw everything else away. I found it at percision bearing,but any industrial tool supply should have it.
I work at a large well known manufacturing/chemical plant. When I first started there was when I first used "crow oil". We use it to hose down all sorts of stuff. You can lay it on alot and thick when you aren't paying for it. Everything is constantly exposed to water and as soon as something starts to stick it's hose it down time. Long time before you have to do it again.
unstuck already. thanks for the tip. I bought the gallon and use the wally world spritzer as suggested - works for me.
Everybody buys it from the factory. Kroil does not have middle men selling their great product. I have bought from them direct for years. You can buy one can or a case. Single can is $11 plus shipping. They used to send COD. Be carefull if you buy from some one else than the factory,they will mark it up on you. A guy I work with said he ordered a case from a new distributor in town. They said it was $230 for a case. I said man that sounds high. I called the factory and they said $95 for a case plus shipping. I understand some mark up, but 50% is goverment type markup. He cancelled the order from the distributor and ordered direct from Kroil for $95 a case. Really great stuff you will never used anything else.
