Favorite Penetrating Oil?

Hi all,

Dose anyone have a favorite brand of penetrating oil?
I'm going to try to get the old studs out as well as replace the temp sender and I'm expecting them to put up a fight.
It seems this kind of product is an essential tool when working with Roadsters that have been sitting for a while like mine.

Thanks!

I have not been overly impressed by PBblaster, but then I haven't been too impressed with ANY product yet for penetrating/loosening stuck in place parts. Though I DO love Evap-O-Rust if the part is able to be dipped..

PB Blaster has worked for me but watch out as it is highly flammable.

Kroil has good reviews, but can be tough to locate. Some swear but a mix of ATF and acetone

I use Krill..can get it on ebay.
Works well. Have had good results cleaning touchy electrical connects (temp. sending connection and starter connections) - liberal spray night before, toothbrush scrub next morning, respray and wipe down for good measure.....good connection restored without disassembly.
I use it to hit any connections that begin to look funky....last thing we need is a snapped or stripped nut or bolt head in the middle of a normally 'easy tweak'....ask me how I know.

Imho Most are good at what they are designed for. I use a a lot of wd40, liquid wrench, PB blaster and the seafoam penetrating oil.
Your choice.
The PB and seafoam are less evaporative.

I had better luck with Kroil than PB. Can only get it online. If you search for coupons, they usually have a deal:
