Default Re: Brake Adjuster Frozen

Another thing about the brake adjuster. After my neighbor had worked the adjuster loose, I plugged one side of the adjuster body and inserted an 8" piece of fuel line in the other hole. I stuck a small funnel in the end of the fuel line and suspended it with a piece of wire. I poured 10-30 oil into the funnel until I could see the oil and let it sit. Every once in a while, I'd work the adjuster back and forth until it turned easy just using my fingers. To drain the oil, I just unhooked the wire and pointed the fuel line into a container. I don't know if any of this is even worth mentioning, but I thought that it might help someone later.
