Penetrating fluid is basically a thin oil and capillary action draws it into the threads and between the rust particles...

Diesel works well, WD-40 is good... GT85 and Plus Gas are the dogs dangles' smile

Down the threads that makes sence.
Interestingly I've just had a seezeid piston removed from my boat engine. And I believe they used diesel.
