Re: Freeing Rusted Brake Lines
Living in Iowa I've seen my share of rusty bleeder screws. One trick that seemed to work quite reliably is to use a spot sand blaster, blast the bleeder screw area to get it free of most rust, then apply PB Blaster, let it soak for several minutes, then open the bleeder. I don't recall a bleeder ever breaking when doing this method.
