Re: Shift Knob Rusted On Shifter
The knob finally came off without breaking. I soaked (submerged) the entire knob in the acetone transmission fluid mix for about a week. I then locked the knob between two, two by four pieces of wood and tightened the vise just enough so the knob would not slip when I put a vise grips on the shift tower. I rocked it back and forth and it finally started to move. I checked to make sure the knob was not getting soft from the solution, but seemed to be fine. Hope this helps someone else with the same problem.
