Pat and Matthew are correct, I also knocked it from the inside. Too
bad you can't get shape charges that small. OOH, new tool idea!!!

Craig,
I do believe Pat's right. BFH (big f'n hammer)is the answer. :-) Intact
is
not likely.
Pat Wrote, rather eloquently, I might add...
The sensors usually get swedged into the hole if the retaining nut is
tightened too much. There may be a buildup of crud between the head and
the sender, so you may be able to free it up with something that will
dissolve the crud in there, but I have never found anything to do the
job. When they have been stuck in the past I've had to use a drift and
beat them out from the inside after removing the thermostat housing.
There is a screw in sender available that I've used as a replacement for
the ones that use a gland nut. They have never seized on me, but others
may have different results. I don't remember what year it was intended
for, but I got it from the dealer.
Good luck.
Peace,
Pat
