Would suggest some PB blaster,  the put the nut back on and give it a few turns.  The more blaster and hit it with a mallet a few times and let unit sit 30 mins before trying again.    If that does not work make sure the nut is on at least 3 turns and drive it around a but.  That might loosen it up.

Wouldn’t play for me at work, played just fine on my phone. Cracked end cap. I see one or two every spring on the sc cooler. Did you have water coming from anywhere else, and do you want to replace the cap yourself?

No water from anywhere else. I pulled the cap and used JB Weld for a temporary fix for now. Can you get a new end cap?

I was 0-3 getting a kid to be a Bobcat...but 3-3 for having Miami Redhawks. :-) Last one graduates next week! 

Just a quick update on this. It’s the end cap that is broken and is about $120 to replace. However, there is an 8 week backlog. Malibu said to use JB weld on the cracks and it should be good to go. I’m letting it cure overnight and I’ll see how it does tomorrow.   They said it’s only about 35psi of water going through the intercooler.
