Sweating is best answer, but be careful not to catch surrounding on fire. Instead of compression, look into sharkbite(push on fittings). They can be found at Home Depot and maybe Lowes, etc. They just push on and are great in a pinch. Compression ftgs will work if put on properly, but can leak if tightened to much or not enough. So if you can't solder, or hire it done, i would look into the push ftgs.
They do make a ferrel puller to remove the old compression fitting. Is it for a toilet or other supply line where you an angle-stop/supply shut off at? If you don't want to spend money on a puller, which can run about 40 bucks, if you have enough pipe sticking out of the wall, get a tiny tim saw and cut as close as you can behind the shut off. Saw it evenly and all the way through, you don't want to leave it all jagged, try to get a square cut (perfectly round) then you can slip on your new shut-off. If you can, sand the pipe with sand cloth to clean the pipe well and do not use any pipe dope or teflon tape as it will usually void the warranty on your new shut off should it leak and cause damage. Just be careful with cutting the old supply off and make sure you have at least a 1/2 to slide the new shut off on. If you don't have enough meat on the pipe, cut it off and use a 1/2 coupling to solder an extension on the end. Good luck! Oh, and don't tighten the new shut off to tight on to the pipe, because then you will have issues later. By the way, you may want to try screwing off the old shut off, which would leave the nut and ferrel on the pipe and gently but firmly try to pull it off by putting channel locks on the nut and trying to ease it off. That has worked a couple of times for me as a plumber in the field. Just don't jerk it, but try to firmly pull it off. Good Luck!
Check the hood switch 1st. Look at the rubber bumper that is on the hood. It pushes the switch when hood is lowered. See if it has an indentation from being squished against the switch for 8 years. If this rubber piece doesn't keep the switch pushed, the car thinks the hood is opened. Replace this piece (part #92736-2D000), it only cost $1.50. If this doesn't solve your problem and you still want to turn off alarm completely, I recommend unplugging the alarm siren under the hood. It will silence the alarm, but your alarm system will still be active and you won't wake the neighbors!!

Steal your car. That usually turns the alarm off. if you are the car owner, rip the tweeter out and let it blink as much as it wants. Seriously. I had a 1989 Nissan 240SX that i found out how to trigger its alarm' it blinked the hazards 25 times and wouldnt let the car start. If you disconnected the battery before you turned the key and then put the battery back on with the key IN the ignition but not TURNING it, it would do this.
