Use a strap wrench and (although this seems obvious) make sure you're turning it the right way...


What kind of magic spell do I need to chant to do this brake bomb? I just spent the last 2 damn hours just removing the whole assy, hoses where you can't get to them and no way to hold the thing still while you remove them.... Now it's out, and I cannot get the accumulator unscrewed!!!!!!!!! Whatever engineer designed this ought to be SHOT DEAD!
