Point of order on the order of operations:
I once had a machine shop remove a stuck protruding bleeder from a Miata
caliper. He _first_ heated it with the Oxy-Acetylene until red
hot...THEN...he doused it with PB Blaster, waited just a few minutes and
out it came without a hitch.

PS: Do in a well-ventilated area. It is Cheech and Chong time when you
douse it with PB Blaster. ;)

[and for a brake caliper, replace all seals since they will be fried]
