Remove the glow plug module, then remove the three(iirc) bolts for the bracket.

Use 18MM 6 point box end wrench to get the valve out.

so the 3 bolts off the control dont take the bracket off? bc it seems like there are two holding the bracket to the engine i cant get to

Ya the bracket is actually bolts down to the motor. They are a pain to get to. They are on the inside of the bracket.

The valve itself can be pretty tight

I put a wrench on it then tapped the wrench with a hammer to crack it loose

I actually slotted my bracket when I put mine back on so if it ever needs removed again I'll just loosen the bolts a little and it should slide right off.
