    Plumbing How to remove a seized toilet tank bolt?

    Penetrating oil (I favor Kroil myself) and time, with some gentle heating. If that doesn't work, destructive means may be called for. Heavy wrenching will likely deform the bolt threads, necessitating replacement anyway. A wing nut in a liquid state has no holding power.

    PF Name Change Pop Up

    Update: I was wrong, the popup *does* appear on my phone as well as on my PC. Yesterday I clicked the "OK" button and now my app icon is labeled "PF"

    I posted a few minutes ago, and just deleted that post. I haven't had my coffee yet. Maybe I will come back here later. Sorry for any confusion!

    Interesting Documentary on the Dounreay Breeder Reactor

    Oh thanks. Whenever I hear that word, it repeats over & over in my mind, like a bubble-gum pop song from the '60's.

    PF Name Change Pop Up

    I have been afraid to try that. I would feel better if anyone here on PF said they have seen this before. Otherwise it seems like clicking links in unsolicited emails.

    PF Name Change Pop Up

    I don't know. I'm seeing this on my PC, not on my (android) phone. When the popup appears, I just use the "back" button and it disappears for a day or two.

    PF Name Change Pop Up

    I started getting this popup a few says ago. Is this something from PF or is it something on my computer? Never seen this before. Thanks

    RIP Syd! If you like the pre-Dark Side Floyd, check out the Nick Mason videos on youtube. He was (is?) touring under the 'Saucer Full of Secrets' name.
