True that
Just read that post in what did you do to your.
Would a penitrant and running the header up to heat help? Maybe give the nut a wee crack with hammer n col-chisel.

I used PB blaster. I couldn't apply any heat --I tried but the brass tip went bad somehow. The flame wouldn't stay lit.

I used an air hammer. I hit it quite a few times, at different intervals, along with dousing it in PB blaster. No luck. It's so tight in there I'd def get burned. There's really no room to work under there, especially working without a lift.

True, but there's really no room to swing a ratchet or wrench, so if I start it to heat up, I'll get burned like a mofo. Those long tubes get hot pretty quick.

Do you have any leather gloves like would be worn by a welder? The ones that go about midway up your forearm. Those would protect you against the heat. At least enough to get the thing out. OR buy a new nozzle for your map gas. Either way, heat will fix your problem
