Personally I've never had a single success with so-called penetrating
oils, not one time in 40+ years, not ever. The only thing I've found
that's guaranteed to work is heat; not just butane or propane heat, but
oxy-acetylene heat. Heat the ****er up till it glows bright orange and
away you go. Never known it fail.

Are you using the wrong stuff? ATF is the best. Some people think WD40 is a penetrating oil, but it's not.
