My neighbor is trying to remove a sending unit on his engine block that was
installed with loctite. He said the sending unite feel like it would break
off before the it would back it out of its thread. What trick the mechanics
use to remove bolts that's installed with loctite?

Why would you loctite a sensor?
You use anti-sieze on sensors

Loctite comes in at least 3 grades. One being considered permanent. Not
something that should be used on anything that's ever supposed to come apart
again.
