Fan Clutch Nut

Hi guys,



what did you guys spray on the clutch fan nut to get it lose, because somebody put to much torque on the nut, so it stuck and won't come lose.

I assume you have the right holder tool?

The right tools: one holding the fan upfront, and the other, turns the nut ccw, and a good penetrating oil like PB Blast, or heat (but be prepared to lose the fan clutch)
