Is this a cup & cone BB?
Removing the NDS cup & spindle is the way to go if that's the case.
I use Liquid Wrench in a can.
Non aerosol, so I can fill a small hypodermic syringe and squirt a bit on to the shell and let it run down the threads, inside out.
The end of the cup acts like a small reservoir to hold some of the oil from running down and allows it to "feed" the threads.
I top off frequently at first and then between TV commercials/programs etc.
This is how I secure the tool. Different tools/spindle lengths can be easily used with a couple different length bolts (8mm x 1.0mm) and a number of washers.
