I'm trying to break loose the heat selector in my distillate manifold. I've had it stewing in an electrolysis tank for 6 days, and it's cleaned a lot of paint, rust, and scale off, but hasn't allowed the valve to move. I pulled it out, cleaned all around the valve with a screwdriver, and managed to break some of the stuff between the valve and the front wall off. But is seems like the selector arm may be rusted in place as well. So, I threw it back in the tank till Sunday.
What else can I do to free this thing up? Once free, is there anything I can do to the inside to prevent it from sticking, freezing, and rusting up?
