The preferred penetration oil by heavy equipment, lift truck and diesel 
mechanics (based on better than 30 years experience on the service and 
engineering sides of those industries) is PB Blaster. Available at just about 
any auto parts, NAPPA, Walmart, Lowes, etc. 

 

Liquid Wrench is marginally better than WD-40.

 

WD-40 is the best diesel starting spray you can buy – and that is about all a 
mechanic will use it for.

I'll give liquid wrench a try tonight and have at it over the weekend and get 
back to you guys.

 

Thanks for all help! - I'm glad this list exists :)

WD-40 is, as the name suggests “water displacement” agent. It is not a good 
lubricant, nor a good penetrating oil.

Also … did you say WD 40?  Perhaps you might try a better penetrating oil as I 
believe that is a lubricant.
