Rik,
WD-40 won't do anything by itself, it's not a Magic Potion. Use some 
vibration with the WD-40 and you might have better luck. Try tapping 
with a small ball-peen hammer or better yet, a muffler gun. The latter 
is a small air hammer that has different tools available for the working 
end. My favorite for this kind of work is a "button" about 1" diameter.

You do need to be careful with the air hammer, it's possible to break 
things. The basic idea is to soak the parts with WD-40 or other 
penetrant (Kroil, Corrosion-X, PB Blaster, etc.), then vibrate the hell 
outa it to loosen the parts and get the 'stuff' to penetrate.

Of course, something might be actually broken, not simply stuck.....
