Hello,

I have a worcester 22mm greenstar magnetic filter.

The screw lid is seized on and I mean really tight, not sure how this has happened as it wasn't put on really tight but I have removed it from the system and the lid won't budge.

Any hidden tips to get this damn thing off?

Thank you.
 
If you have removed the filter from the valves try soaking it in boiling water for a few minutes, then get it in a vice and fingers crossed.
If you do remove it, I always put som silicon grease on o-ring and threads, so next year should be better.
