Hoping someone who has been here before can share how they solved this problem. Trying to remove the stock metal thermostat housing from the intake. This is a real pisser as any engineer knows dissimilar metals will eventually chemically "weld" together in time and here I am trying to remove this housing after 20 years of neglect. The housing we know is sacrificed before we begin so my goal is removal without damaging the intake. Even PB blaster hasn't started to break down the crud. Thought of heat but hesitate again not wanting to damage the intake and that doesn't take into account that PB blaster is flammable! What has worked for others? I am open to all suggestions. And what vendors offer an aluminum replacement housing? Thanks in advance for the advice.
