   While I no longer wiork on cars I have a Heavy Duty 1/2 drive 24"   
   breaker bar I used o nthe stubborn ones. I also have a moderate duty   
   1/2" Drive Electric Impact wrench.   
   As a fiunny side note on this in my dat of wrokign o ncars I has   
   replaced two engines. One a 4 cylinder Pinto Engine and the otrher a 4   
   cylinder Mitisubshi engine forn a Ford Courier PU.   
   The wife go tired of tripping over then in the garage and to quiet her I   
   suggested "Wgy don't yuo take it apart" and then set out the tools she   
   would need.  She tool apart the Pinto engine with a breaker bar and   
   socket set and was quiet for a while. Meanwhile I bought the electrit   
   inpact wrench.   
   When she got tiered of wanking around that engine I gave her the Impact   
   wrench and the socket set.   
   I was in the dog house for a while as she thought I should have aquired   
   the Impact wrench to take apart the Pinto engine.
