I had inquired earlier about cutting off my FWD Prop from my Volvo Penta 290DP-C1. A person in my shop, Marine Corps Shop, not marine Shop, mentioned that for engine block and the likes that are corroded that he does not want to cut on or heat up he would soak them in diesel fuel, kerosene, hydraulic fluid for a few weeks to a month, It is still to cold to go skiing and I am willing to wait if this would keep me from having to cut the prop off, however I am concerned what the diesel or kerosene would do to the seals and bearing on the prop shaft itself? What do you guys think?
