    I would think you need to apply heat to the female part of the connection such as with a hair dryer or a heat gun while cooling down the male part, maybe with some crushed ice with a cloth wrapped around it.

    soak the connection with PB Buster. Use a chamis cloth or rubber gloves for a better grip and twist apart.
