Any one got any neat tricks for seized bolts? My oil cooler lines are stuck onto my oil filter housing pretty good. I've tried copious amounts of WD40 and also slight heating with torch but it's not budging. Any advice?

Torch should work better than anything.

You want to use an oxy fuel torch
I think they may sell fuel cells that use a different gas, that burns almost as hot as an oxy/fuel setup. I'd look into that, since you're using a "hand torch."

I've had good success with car-part.com which can scan junk yard databases from better yards.1990 BMW 325iC Triple Black Hard Top, Self-Wrenched, Original Owner Family
