Per the FAQ, it is supposed to be easier to get the front coolant temp sensor off if you take the intake manifold off. So, I did. But I still can't get enough of a grip on it with an open end wrench to get it off. What do I do now?

Is there some way to get this thing out without destroying it? If I have to destroy it, it means I have to have a rental car until I get a new sensor installed, probably Tuesday at the best. I'd rather avoid the expense. Please, any ideas would be greatly appreciated.
