TIL I was wrong about using a breaker bar on stuck injectors
I always thought more leverage was the answer, but I saw a tech in Tulsa snap a hold-down bolt clean off. He convinced me a proper heat cycle with a torch and a few taps from a brass hammer works better. Anyone have a different method for those really stubborn ones?

My dad's old saying about finesse over force applies to stuck jar lids too.

What's the trick when you've already tried the oil and still can't budge it? I usually end up using so much force I launch the jar across the kitchen, then have to clean pickles off the ceiling. My dad would be so disappointed in my lack of finesse.
