I Have a 2001 Chevy silverado 1500 2wd. I need to check the differential fluid, but I can't get the fill plug out. I have sprayed the plug down with PB Blaster and let it soak for a few hours tried wacking it with a hammer to loosen up the rust, but it still won't budge. Should I try using an impact wrench? Maybe heat it up a little with a propane torch?
Just for clarification the fill plug is the type that a 3/8" socket fits right in.
I am rather mechanicly inclined and have a pretty good assortment of tools... so any help is appreciated. Thanks!
clean out the hole, then use a "short" 3/8 extension on a long breaker bar or long handle ratchet. hammer on the extension to make sure it seats good in the hole and then see if you can break it loose. i have loosened some tough ones this way so maybe it might help you out. good luck.
