MGB: ATF & Acetone...I'm a believer.

Hi folks.
Read about ATF and acetone here, thought I'd try it. Used it to loosen up some old brake bleeder nipples. Gave it a couple of hours, and worked like a charm. I had already tried a couple of other products... patience is a virtue.

I think I was the one who broached the subject and glad it worked out. I have heard nothing negative except anyone who tries to contain it in plastic or spray bottle...acetone IS potent.....

Worked great for me as well.

x2 on the plastic bottle. Use an ALL metal container.

always worked for me to....especially when combined with the heat wrench....the heat turns the liquid to smoke then inhale deep and hold your breath, and enjoy the afternoon.
