erm... believe it or not.. the way if I got one off.. was to attached the 27mm or whatever it is socket on to a breaker, cabled tied onto a large plank which rests on the ground. Then, crank the engine :P. Make sure the CAS or immobiliser is done so the engine wont start :P.

Thanks for all you reply. I tried that still wont come off. I even used an oxy and still wont come off... might have to use a Rattle gun like XRATED said..its my last resort...

The only issue is i have to take the condensor out and maybe the front bar also..

yeah if unable to undo it you'll need to get a long breaker or breaker and jack handle and brace against the chassis rail or on the ground like sarumatix said then use the starter to get it loose.

thats a bloody good idea actually !! mine must have already been loose cos it came off with one hard crack with a breaker bar.

      To back this up, I'm always looking on the outside, seeing the level, and then opening it up anyway, as I'm worried the level I've looked at, is more so a scunge line. Then you end up dipping your damn finger in it too depending on the type of tank you're looking at just to make sure I'm not going insane.   PS, Mark, polish up the none moroso one a bit and then give it a clear coat. The Moroso one looks to be way shiner (not mirror polished, just shinier) and it'll still look weird with the two different alloys beside each other. Either that, or Id probably paint them a flat black...

      Yes, overthinking. Many PS reserviors are completely opaque. Our Skyline ones, for example. Have to remove lid, peak inside, swirl the dipstick, try to remember how to read it, etc etc. Normal. Radiator overflows are often sufficiently opaque and scunged up that you can't see the true level inside anyway, and have to open and have a peak. Besides which, I replaced the (massively expensive, even back then) plastic overflow in my Alfa GTV, back in the '90s with a stainless one that I had a good fabricator make up to be dimensionally same-same, that looks remarkably similar to the Bogan's Moroso one above, and I never suffered any particular paranoia that I didn't know how much coolant was in it.

      Looks great, but I'm always concerned that it makes it difficult to see what level the fluids are at. Am I overthinking this?
