Oil Pressure switch removal

[Anonymous]

Trying to replace the oil pressure switch on a 67 Mustang 200 engine. I've soaked it with the PB penetrating stuff but it won't budge. I’ve already rounded the edges off on the nipple nut and I’m rather perplexed on how to get this thing out. Any advice?

Thanks

hmm I just grabbed it with the longest box end wrench i could find and it came right off

Boy I've never known one to be that tight..... are you sure your turning it the right way counter clock wise?? I guess if you can get on it I'd use a pair of vise-grips.

You could also try putting some heat on it then getting it with the vice grips

And when you twist off the shank, use an Easy-0ut reverse threat bit.
