try heating it up with a hair dryer shout soften the lock tight enough to get it off but use a spanner gets a better grip hope this helps

very hot water will soften the loctite and it'll come off pretty easy.

ok cheers Tom and dru i dont think its loctite its ptfe tape and i think it was screwed in to far will go try it now

Tom is it hot or boiling water?

 

[Chinn]

ok guys still no luck any other ideas?

 

[Tom Allen]

if it's ptfe tape just a spanner will remove it. You could always pop it into me and i can sort it for you.
