Yep that'd be about right. Plenty of duck-oil or plus gas etc etc. Then go for a run to get it up to temp. It'll ease right out then, just mind you don't burn the crap out your forearm whilst removing it. ( Ask me how I know about that ! )

You'll be wanting that 2' long 24mm ring spanner and Jason's best twatting hammer. Job done

Use a heat gun(paint stripper) about a tenner from B+Q,getting Gus's of was the worsed one i'd come across but with plenty of heat it soon came of.
