Cut it off with a cutting disk (not grinding disk) and pop it with a hammer and chisel, you're not the only one.

If all fails. , cut it almost to the threads like stated above , then apply a good amount of never seize before new install. , then periodically loosen prop and reapply never seize thruout the year. A good wire brush cleaning to the threads before applying never seize won't hurt either .

Haven't tried torching it yet. That was gonna be my last option before taking a metabo to it. I work at a machine/fab shop. I can get it off just wanted some input on what every one else has done
