Is there a way to remove a block without loading the world?

[Warpig]

So I've been playing in a world for about 3 months and im endgame and I got a ticking entity crash now and am wondering is it possible to remove the block causing this without loading the world?

 

[ISun]

It's possible with a special mod I believe which will 'cancel' the tick of the block or will remove that block at load time.
So what is the block ID & Metadata?

As far as I know, you could either:
- Do what ISun said.
- Use MCEdit to delete said block.
(I think as long as you don't touch much else, your mod stuff shouldn't randomly turn to vanilla stuff like it used to do, make a backup anyways, just in case.)
- Disable whatever mod said block is from and load the world, this will cause you to lose everything from that mode within any loaded chunks unfortunately, but better that losing your world.
(Plus any items you had you can probably cheat back if you really wanted to.)
