    One of the needle seats on the carbs on my 82 xj 750 doesn't want to break loose. I've soaked it with wd-40 but the edge is rounding instead of breaking loose. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

    Thanks,

    Get some Kroil and give that a try. Seems to be one of the better penetrating oils. WD 40 won't cut it.
