Regardless I used Professional Penetrating Oil... it must be good

How are you changing gears? A spoke screwed into the hub? You should be able to see the difference in rotation when it shifts. You have to hold the shifter in the position you want, you can't just shift it and have it stay there.
I am changing gears using that little chain that comes out of the hub but didnt know I had to hold it... it makes sense. That explains the clunking noises I heard but saw no change in gear ratio.
