The lbs wouldn't touch this wheel, he knew it was stuck. He said they don't deal with old wheels. They broke one key and he said that was enough.
Is PB blaster like wd-40?
Yes, PB Blaster is *similar* to WD-40, but works much better in this type of application. I noted that your tool does barely stick out from the freewheel, and it appears to be caused by the design of the freewheel more than the tool. Most of the time I've dealt with freewheel tools I've had much more of the tool outside the freewheel. Not sure what to make of that. You want to make sure there's enough of the tool on the splines of the freewheel so not to strip it, but certainly looks like you need a better grip on the tool to get enough leverage to get it free.
