Yep that'd be about right. Plenty of duck-oil or plus gas etc etc. Then go for a run to get it up to temp. It'll ease right out then, just mind you don't burn the crap out your forearm whilst removing it. ( Ask me how I know about that ! )

Will have another go but am almost in the frame of mind just to leave the damned thing on

You'll be wanting that 2' long 24mm ring spanner and Jason's best twatting hammer. Job done

Use a heat gun(paint stripper) about a tenner from B+Q,getting Gus's of was the worsed one i'd come across but with plenty of heat it soon came of.

Applied with surgical precision, as always
