We switched to these. Starting fluid or brake cleaner and a lighter works well to remove the ice.

Just slide the steer axle back
Bean Jr., Blackshack46 and cnsper Thank this. -
When it's late in the day and I want to hammer on for a while longer, I typically use a 32oz Ball Peen.
If I really need to get moving, I usually jump out in the hammer lane, the really drop the hammer, a 4 lb engineers sledge. sure gets the job done -
This way you do not break the key.

Got scared last night. I did go past recomended flasher fluid interval. Activate left flasher, nop not flashing. I could only hope I did not burn the entire system! Pulled out as soon as I could to have a close look.
Lucky me, it was only the 7way plug ripped apart while taking a turn, cable got stuck and ripped.
Could have been a 4-5 k bill from what ive been told from a flip flop track pants quadruple teamed driver. -
I wonder what the OP actually meant by "Airing out fuel tanks"? Leave the cap off to get rid of that nasty fuel smell?
-
If he does, i bet he has a huge fuel bill?
