Im new at this gas pump restoring and I dont know if all you guys know about this stuff called "Kroil".This stuff is amazing it has unstuck nuts and bolts that have rusted into one piece on my Tokheim 620 that has layed in a field for 50 years.I heard about from some older guys that restored old tractors.Its produced by a company called "Kano Laboratories" I found it on the internet.A gallon of this stuff costs $20 and is well worth it.Just thought I would pass this along.

There is NOTHING better. We have been using it at the plant where I work for years to prevent heat gauling of large bolts. Great Tip.

They dont retail it through anyone, you have to order it directly from Kano Labs. Order it in gallon cans and use out of a spray bottle, its cheaper than aerosol cans. We buy it in the pint throw away squirt cans. I got a gallon of it I keep in a glass pickle jar to submerge stuff in. The crap will settle out and you can pour off the kroil and reuse. I completely spray everthing on a pump for a week before I start to take it apart, especially if you want to save the hardware. You can actually see where it has run down around a base bolt and out the bottom threads.
Their silicon spray is the best made also.
I should be getting a comission.

You guys are absolutely correct. Kroil is the best stuff around. My Dad always used it when we were restoring old John Deere tractors. There is another product called
PB Blaster in an aerosol can that ranks right up there with Kroil. PB Blaster can also be used to fix a leaky toilet valve. I know because I used it.

Y'all are 100% correct. I've been using
this stuff for years and it is unquestionably the best. I removed bolts from
a Fry 117 and didn't strip or twist off a one. Let it sit a little and it'll do it. I
couldn't restore my pumps without it. TP
