Ok all CJ and Yak maintainers...
Need some (more) advice, please-

Trying to refresh my CJ6's LG struts' nitrogen and hyd fluid... following
the Chinese maint manual, one removes the air filler after bleeding down
the pressure, and fills the cylinder w/ hyd fluid (mil-h-5606) thru the
resulting open hole.

My filler valve won't budge w/ a 17mm wrench, by hand.
Any tricks to getting the filler valve out?
Reversed threads?
Breaker bar required?

Thoughts, experiences,  advice please?
Thanks much,
