Art --

For a couple of years I soaked mine in PBlaster every time I was working in
the area, I also cleaned the threads and put a bolt in them to keep them
clean.

When the day came to remove one (broken spring) I used a method outlined by
Randall that applies a length of all-thread and an assortment of sockets,
washers and a nut to pull it out.

Came out as smoothly as a cork from a wine bottle.

YMMV (by quite a bit apparently).
