    marvel mystery oil is the best. just spray it on and let it sit for 5-10 minutes and WHAM. they're loose.

    *edit* make sure you're going in the right direction. Righty tighty, lefty loosey.

    yea it does, its my best friend.
    All I gotta say is let it soak and keep tugging. If its still too tight try slipping a 5 foot pole over the end of the breaker bar. And if that don't work get a propane torch, they are pretty inexpensive and well worth it.
