If you have a 3/8 inch mm socket wrench with extender you can put another extender in it being that it nice and skinny. Then put some papertowel inside the 12mm socket then use a small prybar and turn it slowly. I think you stripped the nut that was on it thats why its not coming off. Hope this helps

If you can get a crowfoot on there that would be easier. It looks like a wrench but it connects to the socket and helps a lot.

yea get an extention and then a long breaker bar, that will work. or even with ur small ratchet, get a wrench that fits the end of the ratchet and then that will lengthen the the ratchet for more torque..

sometimes i sliightly tighten it and then loosen it as well.

haha sometimes it is easier when the motor is warm as well.

try a 3/8 ratchet with a 12mm socket and an extension hold the head of the ratchet while your trying to turn it

torque wrench with a really long extender

You don't want to use a torque wrench to loosen exhaust manifold bolts, you'll most likely have to get it recalibrated if not break it.
