You should get a licensed LPG fitter to do it. It is not something to try at home.

I will shoot anyone who thinks otherwise.

Grab a big pair of multi grips and spray some wd-40 around it.

and yet anything goes wrong with your car you ask us what the problem would be, tell us we arent mechanics and then go pay ford to fix it, :roll:

If you got a good spray of LIQUID you'd be dead and frozen. <---- Has happened before to someone who though they could fix a leaking safety valve thread.
The method they chose was leave tank full, undo the valve a few turns and smear it with sealer then do it up.
He got as far undoing the valve a few turns, It then shot out and he got half a tank of LIQIUD all over him. This froze him, the resulting vapour was ignited by a near by BBQ and he was then burned to a crisp. Lucky he was already dead and frozen, so he didn't feel the flames.

A little spray to the face you'd only be permanently blinded and a bit disfigured.
