First you need to get the two nuts off and leave AT LEAST one of them with good thread left. Next just fit a spacer and then fit the nut over the spacer. Tighten the nut and watch it proggressively get the bar out. It will take several hours and you will need many old bearings or similar as spacers but I was able to unlock an engine left next to the ocean for 40 odd years.

This has worked for me
and me, on my scooter, which was unlikely to have ever had the engine out in it's [at the time] 40 year life. definitely less stressful than bashing it with a hammer...

shouldn't be any need if it's greased up on assembly, and you don't point the jetwash at it...

groovel is a good word]
ha ha, just saw that, does sound like a good word though, maybe we have another spork....
