  • In this video we show a way to remove rusted bolts and fasteners from a flat head ford V8 with a cool tool that we purchased. Its called the Mini-Ductor by Venom. We haven't had this tool very long but we've already used it in a few instances that has really saved time, labor, and not destroyed the part. This is a very handy tool for our auto restoration business.
    UPDATE , please watch latest videos where we use this in areas that a flame COULD NOT be used. That is our most common question. Thank you.

      It does work, I have that tool myself. Very handy, especially if you're trying to get a fuel tank off with stubborn bolts nearby. Or, with sensitive plastics close by. Engine coated in oil? Give me a break. You think oil seepage from a valve cover is going to free all the exhaust manifold bolts?

    An old trick I learned from a old school mechanic back in the day.. take a chisel with a flat end and a decent hammer and hit the top of the bolt head 2-3X. And try loosening it.. if it's still thought to move, hit it again..
    This has worked for me many many times.

    About time. In 1971 I worked in the power generation business on steam turbines. Horizontal joint bolts were 3 to 4 inches in diameter with a 1/2" diameter hole down the center for a torch or Cal Rod for heat. You'd tighten the bolt as much as you can with a sluggish wrench and then heat it with a cal rod to expand the bolt and then calculate the bolt stress you want based on bolt stress and tighten up the expanded bolt a measured number of bolt flats.

    • @nothankyou
      @nothankyou 3 года назад +17

      I think the logic is normally that the rapid expansion 'breaks' whatever is holding it in place - be it goop or rust. Similar to how that stuff 'breaks' with a good turn, this achieves it without putting the bolt under torsional stress.

    • @dantevortex
      @dantevortex 3 года назад +1

      I'm thinking liquifying dried up oil, rust bits and other crud is the magic part. The bolt does expand, but it immediately cools down again, leaving a miniscule gap, and smooth extraction.

      It's induction. The coils don't put out heat, it's an alternating electromagnetic field that heats the ferrous material inside the coils directly. Also power is cheaper than using fuels to do the same thing and pretty much all of the power is going directly where intended which is an efficiency thing compared to that of your torches. No bottles to buy or refill to do the same job less waste and less overall heat in the surrounding area. As another said too, you can easily make your own dirt cheap and size it up or down accordingly.

    another added technique on really ruusty bolts in addition to penetrating oil is to go back and forth in tiny increments [ loosen, tighten, loosen, tighten etc]and increase it a bit each time maybe applying more wd40 as you go. i did this removing sparkplugs in old 5.4 L ford engine. they scxreeched so loud i thought for sure 3 out of 8 were gonna break but it worked none broke bad enough to need trhe extracrtion tool i alreadsy bought

    I think that tool works like a super charge rotor heater for jet engines.
    The coil in the main part uses induction (EXTREMELY STRONG MAGNETIC EXPOSURE)... that in turn heats up the bold head AND threads. The old way (using a propane torch) only heats the head and bold, but without the electromagnetic induction the threads would still stick, hence the 'broken bold".
    Heating by induction actually separates the rust from both threads. The rust is still there, but it's no longer attached.

    Actually it’s only designed to conduct heat with the iron in the rust, I have an old one, it’s perfectly fine to touch. And you don’t need penetrating oils.

You can find ANY brand breaking when you look online where there are BILLIONS of people. You have to find the ratio of breaks to units in use to accurately determine if these tools are any less durable than others.
