Only in your dreams did Heath use Teflon wiring. 
For stuck slugs ....in the amp and not chambered in a 44 Magnum, try a
bit of Lacquer Thinner down the holes once you have the amp tipped up. A
bit of heat to melt the wax also helps if you can get to the coils. I
have had success with either method.

If that dont work, rip all the coils out and sell the amp to a CBer  or
to me since I rip all that junk out anyway when I convert to 6M.

I "knew" a Kit once when I lived in Kansas, you could buy her for a few
bucks.
