soak it in thinner or carb cleaner for about a week or so. If it is still stuck then plug the inlet or outlet and install a air compressor hose to the other end.

WRAP THE ASSSEMBLY WITH A HEAVY TOWL to prevent glass scattering should it break. Also, when applying the air pressure try it at about 5 psi and let it set for an hour or two. Incrementaly raise the pressure by about 10 pounds until it loosens.

The glkass is THICK and stout. My guess is that it will easily take 50 psi with out breaking. Probably more. It should come loose at no more than 30 psi. Just don't rush the process.
