First, I soaked the nut and area in vinegar by wrapping a paper towel piece around it like a plaster cast after soaking it in vinegar. Same technique as used to remove shower control module in the bathroom where the screw off cover is corroded with minerals. Then I used PB a few times. And I'm going to try penetrating oil while on trip to Michigan this weekend. A mechanic told me I might have to tap the flare wrench onto the nut breaking some rust off the outer surface.

Are you using a flare wrench?
