Make sure you are using a good 6-point socket or wrench to keep from rounding off the corners on the fitting. Heat will help but call the manufacurer first as too much might damage the solenoid.
Next time use medium strength locktite (blue), and it only takes a little. It sounds like you used a bunch of (red) stud & bearing mount locktite. That type says on the bottle you need to use heat to remove it. But if you don't use too much it will sometimes come loose without heat.
