Thanks for replying.

Options at this point are limited. You can get a flare nut wrench style crows foot that has a little more bite shown below.

If you have access which I doubt you do, you can use a pair of vice grips clamped on very tight to break the fitting loose.

Do not heat the pump nor the fitting, this will cause even more damage. you can however spray some rust penetrating oil around the fitting to help free up the rusted threads. You can use a center punch and hit one of the flat sides of the nut in the direction to loosen it which will sometimes free it up.

Thanks for asking your question. Your helping me pay my bills, and I

am hopefully helping you lower your repair bill or at least informing

you of the repair needed prior to getting it fixed.

You are about to see our rating system. The rating is how I am paid.

No rating and I am not paid. Neutral or Negative rating and I am not paid.

I am only paid once you rate OK or GOOD or EXCELLENT SERVICE.

For some customers there is not a rating, just press ACCEPT then.

Please if you need to follow up, only press REPLY TO EXPERT.

You can also reply after rating if needed. I also ask that you do reply

and state which service you wanted to select because there has been

a problem with the rating system.

Thanks Chris
