Is it possible to hit the bolt head with a hammer to shock it , start spraying CRC too
as NN says a sharp tug may be better than loading it up.
Dropped a bit of crc on it last night had a spare half an hour just before and got it to move. Half turn then done it up again. At least now it's moved.

Keep the spray up to it and move it back and forward as well using the spray
sounds like its about to come free
It was gonna go all the way I just put it back in because car was just turned off so didn't wanna lose hot coolant and I didn't have the sensor with me anyway .
So I'm confident the bolt is free .

After trial and error of few adaptors and sensors , the blue adaptor is best fit as it allows the most sense probe surface poking out at coolant end.
Case dismissed. Now to plug it in one cool morning.

I'm actually thinking of get the OEM plug and drilling and tapping that. Then the probe will be further in. As I reckon my temps are false. They are hotter than it actually is. Because of the sender sitting out so much its soaking more radiant engine heat than coolant.
How do you know its hotter than it really is?
You talking about drilling the original blanking bolt ? I thought about that, but once you drill big enough hole/thread for the probe, there ain't much meat left on the side walls. Unless you're talking about something different ?Quote:

It'll be hard to gauge whats accurate and whats not, as there is nothing to compare it to. Wish if somehow you could pickup the readings from the factory probes in a numerical way.
You might be able to on yours hodge. The td42ti engines run an ecu. You can wire a scan gauge or similar in to them to see whats going on.
