Male Half of the snowblower driveline stuck on PTO spline

The best penetrating oil I've ever used in called Blue Creeper it works on things that PB blaster, Liquid Wrench, and others would not touch. The best thing is that it does not take a lot of it to work: A few drops does what tablespoons of PB Blaster had no effect on.

Glad to hear the Deep Creep stuff worked to get it loose.
Sounds like rust on the shaft is probably what caused it to get stuck, occasional light coat of grease or oil on the shaft would most likely prevent that from ever happening again.

Oh there's no worry about that my friend. Before I reinstall that PTO it's going to be so slippery slidie(is that even a real word) that my problem will probably be trying to keep in on!!!!!!!!!!

remove yoke spider bearing and use a gear puller

Thank you for your suggestion, however, I got it off by using some Deep Creep.
