That's close. My recipe is 50/50, ATF/acetone. If you have a hard time finding acetone, you can use kerosene, but acetone works better. You might have to go to a paint store to find it, but around here, Home Depot stocks it.

Haven't tried any others (or needed anything more) than:

1. Seafoam Deep Creep

2. PB Blaster

I've only used PB Blaster and Seafoam Deep Creep

Seafoam Deep Creep works best by far, especially with heat, but expensive.

PB Blaster works ok, less than 1/2 the price of Deep Creep, but it smells horrible.
