GeorgeS Posted October 3, 2008 Share #3 Posted October 3, 2008 Get a can of Liquid Wrench, Apply the stuff every day for 3 or 4 days, give it time to work on cleaning out the threads. Slowly, you should be able to get them out, and clean them. The threads are Very Fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
