The pliers came after three days with a hair dryer using every configuration of heating I could think of.....I tried heating, cooling, letting it rest, etc, etc. Believe me, those multigrips was the last resort. The alternative would have been damage somewhere.

I'm also not that keen on putting WD40 on my QHY8 threads next to the sensor, just in case the vapours eventually get on the sensor glass. Hard to clean off.

I was thinking of a very very slight light grease with a tissue though.
