Classic Coolant Sensor jammed, plastic guffed.

Hi,

I was replacing my coolant temp sensor and it's one of the ones with the plastic body. Anyway, I can't remove it as the plastic just keeps turning and the brass does not.

Is there any bodges to get it free?

Mole grips?

Managed in the end with a massive Stilson.

Well done!
Unusual for brass to seize(?) & lucky it stood up to Stilsons

Is that the one on the inlet manifold? The plastic ones are junk and well done for getting stilsons I there.
