Default Stuck screws

there are some screws on my rs4 2 that are stuck and wont move. the screw on the clutch will not come out, the 4 screws on the head wont come off and the 4 screws holding the engine on are stuck too (I know that the engine screws have locktight) all of the screws are just about stripped. any tips or advice will help.

Default RE: Stuck screws

If the screws are in to metal, as it seems they are from what you say get a small torch and heat them up. Normally buy heating the head of the screw will work. If the where installed properly then they have lock tight on them and heat is what works. I know this from making my living working on motorcycles for over 30 years. Make sure it is a small one. You can get one from places like Radio Shack. [8D]
