WD40 is not a releasing agent.  ;) WD stands for water dispersant. Penetrating oil is required.

Trigger:
Yep Mat, I ment WD40, plus gas, tap 2 and everything else i have in the workshop. It is soaking in warm diesel at the moment. Cheers for the picture Mike.
 And that is the Bastard i am on about Bitsa. Bitsa what is your arm from? Because there are two types, one is for the 750/ 550 and the other is for the 400/4 / 500T and the 250. Maybe others.
