Tried that - both getting the sensor glowing - the pipe glowing - both glowing - can't get the thing to move.

Problem is, I should have done that FIRST - instead I did everything wrong - started with an open ended wrench - rounded it a bit - cut the wires and used the box end, hitting it with a heavy hammer and pushing with my foot - rounded it a LOT more.

Cracked the sensor body off and tried a socket - rounded it even further.

FINALLY tried a 6 point socket on an impact driver - but still nothing.

So now I have a nice rounded mess.

Should have just gone with the heat and the 6 point right from the start.

I know better - I was just being stupid and now I'm paying for it.

Going to let it soak some more - and keep my fingers crossed.

I've got the acetone/atf on there now - we'll see if it does have magical properties.
