Liquid Wrench

I'm pulling my headers off this weekend to do some work on them. I have to put some liquid wrench on the the air connection tube because it doesn't come off easily. The thing is I need to soak it for a while and then drive it somewhere else to work on it. Will the heat mess with the liquid wrench?

There are better things than liquid Wrench such as PB Blaster. It cost more, but people tell me its worth it cus sometimes liquid wrench wont work. Ofcourse, this is mostly when talkign about exhaust bolts that get wet all the time when it rains, so I dont think header bolts will be much of a pain.

PB blaster is what I used and it worked well. I only soaked them for probably a couple minutes, and some I didn't even soak at all, and they all came out pretty easily with almost no use of extensions. I guess it's all that working out I've been doing (yeah right!).
