im sure u can find somethin stronger than wd40, id say put a blow torch to it but that might be a very bad idea due to obvious reasons...

PB Blaster. Let it soak. Word of advice, don't let the filter get so old that it has time to rust. It's really not a hard job when it's less than a year old. Another good trick is to spray some of that undercoating all over the filter ends and threads after installation. Hopefully it'll stay on long enough to keep the rest from forming and a can of undercoating or paint is always good to have for misc. clean up.
