Happy Father's day... Any ideas on how to get this banjo off? No leverage and ridiculously stuck. See pic.

2 box end wrenches in a V shape and sqeeze together.

Thanks, Been trying that. Keeps slipping off the narrow one. Thinking maybe clamping that side with a bolt splitter may work... Dousing PB blaster for the next 24

6 point box for the narrow one? 6 point socket?

And use a pneumatic impact wrench @ LOW setting and zap it!

Thanks gents. I'll try again later today.

12pt = Let me strip that hex head for ya guy...
6pt = Glad you got serious and called in a professional.

[HeitzWelle]

Thx. Ordered 6pt 17mm. What's another day...

All of my sockets are 6 point, other than a very few for special uses. All of my wrenches are 12 point but I have extra 11 12 13 14 15 17 in 6 point to deal with the occasional nut that wants to round off.

Flare nut wrench.

What's another tool.

So true

Took a while to get back to this but after all else failed I used the Dremel and a bolt breaker to get this off the fuel hose. New pump is in.

Thanks for suggestions.
