Yah, tell me about it.  I went through the same thing today.  I couldn't get
the old sensor out.  I just welded another sensor boss on and left the old
one in place.  It only takes ten minutes to weld a new fitting in, so it
wasn't worth it to spend much time trying to get the old one out.
A TIG welder is a handy thing to have....
