If you have movement along the stud, any movement at all, it will come off with "conventional" methods.
Movement back and forth will eventually break down the seal and allow something like "Plus gas" in.
My local car spares shop suggested a mixture of acetone (nail varnish remover) and diesel, because they had no Plusgas in stock, which worked for me.
Patience is the biggest requirement. If it is really bad it could take two or three hours of knocking it back and forth, heating, cooling and lubricating.
As I say, if there is ANY genuine movement (not stud stretching, loose in its hole, or twisting) then it will eventually come without more drastic measures.
