Hello, I'm trying to lengthen the usable life of my water heater by replacing the anode rod (ZINC?) and using an angled fill (dip) tube (to really get all the debris out).
Problem is I can't get either one off. It's almost as if they are welded on there with rust and corrosion. I tried pretty hard using a breaker bar but I don't want to break the actual fittings so I stopped. I used all kinds of PB BLASTER and WD40 to no avail letting it soak for days. Any other way to get these off?
Thanks
