Freeing a stuck bolt on the auto tranny for drain and refill.
So the bolt that I need to loosen is very hard to take out, Tried manhandling it with extra leverage, torching it to expand the threads and soaking it with WD40. no dice. The bolt is recessed into the housing. Any advice ???
Thank you HT. in advance.

there is a product they make that you spray on kinda like the WD40 to loosen bolts, but i cant remember for the life of me what its called, hopefully someone will see this and remember

advance, napa, tractor supply, or just about any other parts store will have the pb blaster. Make sure you drive the car to get the tranny really good and hot it will make that plug easier to come out. I screwed up once and I wanted to change the oil pan gasket and didn't let the oil warm up enough so needless to say the drain plug rounded off on me and I had to get a craftsman bolt out set to remove it.
pb blaster is good
liquid wrench is good too
WD 40 is useless, Doesn't do any one job well. doesn't penetrate, doesn't lubricate, doesn't protect. Good marketing though.
