Re: [FWDLK] Oil Pump Shaft Stuck

Ron if you haven't already try a top quality penetrating oil like Aero Kroil 
and let it set a couple of days. If that doesn't free it up apply heat to 
the surrounding casting and the different rates of expansion between the 
cast and steel should free it up. Dick
