Thanks Jeff. Tomorrow I'm going to find whatever we have up here in Ontario (Kroil, PB Blaster and whatever else). Then I'll apply it over 4 or 5 days before giving it any more tugs. I just have to be patient and not let this get me twisted around. Thanks again. Ross

Acetone and transmission fluid 50/50 mix. works great. Keep soaking it . Also, work your wrench in both directions until it frees up.

These days, lots of allen wrenches are made from chineesium and will round over quickly. Use quality tools made of quality steel. Dress the end of the wrench on a grinding wheel if needed to remove a rounded off end.

Hammer in a metric socket Allen wrench if you have to and use a small impact to give it a few rat a tat tats.

I have heard about this before. So I mixed up a 50/50 concoction and comparing it to PB Blaster, I went back to the PB. I found it didn't work as well.
I am PB Blaster kind of guy...LMAO

So drain it in a pump oil can.
I dropped a nearly full can once and broke the tip off, so it was salvaged.

Same happens to me. I drain off the pressure, puncture a hole in the bottom, and drain it into a Plastic Zoom Oiler Bottle. Works great.

You don't have to waste or dump the oil into another container. Here is a video that shows how to refill aerosol cans.

Cub Cadet is a premium line of outdoor power equipment, established in 1961 as part of International Harvester. During the 1960s, IH initiated an entirely new line of lawn and garden equipment aimed at the owners rural homes with large yards and private gardens. There were a wide variety of Cub Cadet branded and after-market attachments available; including mowers, blades, snow blowers, front loaders, plows, carts, etc. Cub Cadet advertising at that time harped on their thorough testing by "boys - acknowledged by many as the world's worst destructive force!". Cub Cadets became known for their dependability and rugged construction.

MTD Products, Inc. of Cleveland, Ohio purchased the Cub Cadet brand from International Harvester in 1981. Cub Cadet was held as a wholly owned subsidiary for many years following this acquisition, which allowed them to operate independently. Recently, MTD has taken a more aggressive role and integrated Cub Cadet into its other lines of power equipment.
