: I have a Ford 801 tractor. I'm putting in a new temperature gauge due to old one was broke. The trouble is I can't get the sender out of the block. Is there an easier way to do this? I have tried vice grips and pipe pliers but it still doesn't move. The owner before rounded the hex head off too much to use a six point socket on it. Any help is surely apprieciated. Thank you for any help. Herb I have had luck getting them out by taking a torck and trying to heat up just the temp sender fittings. get them pretty hot then let them coll off naturally spray the heck out of it with kroil or p.b. blaster oil and it should come out. The heat of the torch wil make the sender fittings swell and break loose the rust and when they cool off it should back out.
