I'm going to be getting my Fasty out of her long-term hibernation and one of the first orders of business is going to be a 4-wheel brake bleed and replacement of brake hoses. I am terrified that I'm going to snap off the bleeder screws- even though I've only done this once in my entire life. What can you guys recommend here for me? Is there a trick to this? Lots of liquid wrench for days, then bleed? Hitting the bleeder screws with the propane torch sounds a little risky, what with the proximity of highly flammable brake fluid. And what, if anything, can I use so they don't sieze up in the future? ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ List info at http://www.vwtype3.org/list | mailto:gregm@vwtype3.org ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
